I am Rhodesian (Words by tiomkin. And - my special thanks to Bruce Woodley)
I came from the starry skyes From the grassy sunny plain I am Zimbabwe ancient Bird That keeps my country flame I swam along Zambezi I watched the gale winds come And for million years I always been The first Rhodesian
I came on with Cecil Rhodes I led them wagon trains I mined the gold, I worked the land And waited for the rains I'm a settler, I'm a farmer That greets the morning sun I'm a pioneer and proud to be A new Rhodesian
I'm the miner's daughter My daddy's worked the lode And I became a woman On a long and dusty road I saw depression fall upon I saw the good times come I'm a mushi, I'm chaeewa I am Rhodesian
We are one, but we are many and from all the lands on earth we come We share a dream, and sing with one voice I am You are We are Rhodesian
I cheered the Independence And answered call to arms I fought against Mugabe To save my brother's farms I jumped from the choppers And made them fighters run I'm a troopie, I 'm a scout I am Rhodesian
I'm the hot sun of the desert I'm the Lake Kariba squalls I am Zambezi River And the great Victoria Falls I am the Eastern highlands I make the rivers run The spirit of the great land I am Rhodesian
We are one, but we are many and from all the lands on earth we come We share a dream, and sing with one voice I am You are We are RHODESIAN!
