Ooh-ooh The wild dogs cry out in the night As they grow restless longing for some solitary company I know that I must do what’s right As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti I seek to cure what’s deep inside frightened of this thing that I’ve become Gonna take a lot to drag me away from you There’s nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do I bless the rains down in Africa Gonna take some time to do the things we never had... Ooh-ooh Hurry boy she’s waiting there for you Gonna take a lot to drag me away from you There’s nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do I bless the rains down in Africa I bless the rains down in Africa (I bless the rain) I bless the rains down in Africa (I... bless the rains) I bless the rains down in Africa I bless the rains down in Africa (Ah... gonna take some time) Gonna take some time to do the things we never had... Ooh-ooh
