In Zaire (Muhammed Ali) deutsche Übersetzung
von Johnny Wakelin

Once there was a battle there (In Zaïre, in Zaïre)
Hundred thousand people there (In Zaïre, in Zaïre)
All those people gathered there (In Zaïre, in Zaïre)
To see the rumble in the jungle there (There)
In Zaïre

The champian and the challenger (In Zaïre, in Zaïre)
Came over from America (In Zaïre, in Zaïre)
All those people came from far (In Zaïre, in Zaïre)
To see the rumble in the jungle there (There)
In Zaïre

And who was the victor in the night?
No finer kentucky boy, Ali won the fight (Fight)


All those people chanted there (In Zaïre, in Zaïre)
Seven rounds of torture there (In Zaïre, in Zaïre)
One more round and Ali there (In Zaïre, in Zaïre)
There was great excitement everywhere (Where)
In Zaïre

The lightning struck twice in the night
First in the ring and then after the fight (Fight)

(In Zaïre, in Zaïre)
(In Zaïre, in Zaïre)
(In Zaïre, in Zaïre)
(In Zaïre, in Zaïre)
(In Zaïre, in Zaïre)
(In Zaïre, in Zaïre)
(In Zaïre, in Zaïre)
(In Zaïre, in Zaïre)
(In Zaïre, in Zaïre)
(In Zaïre, in Zaïre)
(In Zaïre, in Zaïre)
