Lyrics
Chipimbiri the Rhino claimed the forest He was going to make a brand new life There was plenty grazing plenty water He was trying toattract a brand new wife Ngulube the warthog came to trespass Chipimbiri caught him in the act Chipimbiri said I'm going to kill you Ngulube what you think of that Ngulube gave him sorrow raised the temper of Chipimbiri Ngulube gave him sorrow trespassing in his territory Ngulube the warthog said please spare me I will do anything you wish or say Chipimbiri the Rhino said fetch water Bring it to me a hundred times a day Ngulube he was really tiring And the ticks took all his energy Ngulube he just kept right on going Was afraid of old Chipimbiri Ngulube gave his honour Said he'd fetch water every day Ngulube gave his honour Said he'd try to please in every way Ngulube he was so exhausted When he reached the muddy waterside Fell down right into the sticky mud there And he almost very nearly died Then the coolness of the pool revived him And the ticks they all began to drown Then old Chipimbiri came and followed Just to see where Ngulube'd gone Ngulube made him follow Ngulube made him come to see Ngulube made him follow Came along to see where he could be Ngulube woke and he got up then Skin was irritated as can be Rubbed himself upon a nearby ant heap And the ticks were dead and falling free Then old Chipimbiri saw it happen And he went and did the very same He said Ngulube you're forgiven You've put me out of all my pain Ngulube made the wallow Ngulube had to show the way Ngulube made the wallow Ngulube made the ticks go away
