C'est là-bas que j'aime aller
Son coeur ne connait pas de frontières 
Chez elle on peut danser
Pieds nus en regardant vers la mer
Il y a en elle, dix mille couleurs
Le soleil et la Terre
S’invitent chez elle c’est le bonheur
Chez mama, chez mama Africa
Chez mama, chez mama Africa

Mama Africa

[?]
C'est là-bas que j’aime aller
Mama dit toujours la vérité
Son rire fait fuir les sombres nuages
Dieu, à ce qu’il paraît
Aurait fait l’Homme à son image
Chez mama, chez mama Africa
Chez mama, chez mama Africa
Chez mama, chez mama Africa
Chez mama, chez mama Africa

C'est là-bas que j'aime aller
Son coeur ne connait pas de frontières
Chez elle on peut danser
Pieds nus en regardant vers la mer
Il y a en elle, dix mille de couleurs
Le soleil et la Terre, 
S’invitent chez elle c’est le bonheur
Chez mama, chez mama Africa
Chez mama, chez mama Africa

Oh, mama Africa

Chez mama, chez mama Africa
Chez mama, chez mama Africa

Chez mama, chez mama Africa
Chez mama, chez mama Africa
Chez mama, chez mama Africa
Chez mama, chez mama Africa
