Warm is the night and we are sitting here 'round the fire The air is dry and thousands of stars in the sky Drums that are beating so hot and I feel the desire To dance with Bruwana but she is looking so shy I come back, African baby Night and day I'm thinking of you Legs so black, my African lady I return, you know it's true Midnight is near and she's layin' in my arms and we're dreaming
The fire is small and the coldness brings her to my heart I look in her eyes and I see a strange kind of feeling Maybe she knows that tomorrow I have to part I come back, African baby Night and day I'm thinking of you Legs so black, my African lady I return, you know it's true
