Zulu Warrior
I come a zimba zimba ziya
I come a zimba zimba zee
I come a zimba zimba ziya
I come a zimba zimba zee
See him there, the zulu warrior
See him there, the zulu chief...chief...chief...chief...
chief...chief...chief...chief...
(Organize the audience into two groups. After a few practice
rounds, Group One continues singing "chief" while Group
Two starts over, then the sides switch. It keeps on
repeating with encouragement from the leaders to start softly and sing
each round a little louder. Then encourage each side to compete
for volume. The final round can be heard miles away!).
Excellent song to lead into the surprise appearance of a costumed OA
dancer!
