UGANDA
With its deep red soil
High high up on the equator
A great green spectacular land
The Nile rapids plummet north
40 million farmers living life
Blue skies, rainy seasons
Lions, giraffes complete Safari’s
Crazy Kampala where life is slowly fast
Country roads where more people walk
Where Boda’s rule, trucks puff and smoke
Mburo with Lodges on land islands
Murchison with parks and falls
Queen Elizabeth has it all
Snowy mountains of the moon
Nile perch flap to your plate
Charcoal food and exhaust mix
Elegant ladies in Sunday best
Smouldering brick kilns
Yellow water jerries balanced on heads and bikes
Neat sugar and tea fields stretch out
Everyone grows Pineapples and Bananas
Watch out “A goat and kid”
Gorillas in the misty mountains
A climate thats right for anyone
This is the Jewel of Africa’s
