[Intro]
Shoorah [x2]
[Chorus 1]
She grows, she's grown like pampas
Tall in the wind, she's simple and spiteful
She's all girl, woman and mother
She's had my children and she's been my lover
No no no no, no no, she don't like to fight it
Once you've been bitten, you get excited
Ma-ma-ma-ma-mama, she really likes her
She comes for coffee, and my mama asked me
[Chorus 2]
So where's the shoorah she sang?
You know I hear it again, my friend
Where's the shoorah, she came upon it
Waiting to sing her back
Because she likes to sing about
Where's the shoorah she sang?
Over and over and over
Where's the shoorah she sang?
[Bridge]
Shoorah[x3]
[Chorus 1]
[Chorus 2]
[Outro]
Oh, Shoorah
Shoorah
Shoorah [x2]
[Chorus 1]
She grows, she's grown like pampas
Tall in the wind, she's simple and spiteful
She's all girl, woman and mother
She's had my children and she's been my lover
No no no no, no no, she don't like to fight it
Once you've been bitten, you get excited
Ma-ma-ma-ma-mama, she really likes her
She comes for coffee, and my mama asked me
[Chorus 2]
So where's the shoorah she sang?
You know I hear it again, my friend
Where's the shoorah, she came upon it
Waiting to sing her back
Because she likes to sing about
Where's the shoorah she sang?
Over and over and over
Where's the shoorah she sang?
[Bridge]

Oh, Shoorah
