Keep that beaming smile on your face Keep that lovely ebony skin shining Keep those thick and tempting lips moist and glossy You have every cause to be happy Bear in mind you can always count on me In good times and in bad times Whether you are right or whether you are wrong I'll be on your side till the end I'll give you my shoulder to lean on When you are not strong to stand on your own I'll be with you in sunshine and in rainfall And when harmattan inevitable comes One small blanket is all we need To shield us both from the freezing cold.
