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!
