Lyrics
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Bubbaladinga
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Bubbaladinga, hey
There was a flood
And many poor men were killed
And that is why our house
Is built on the top of a hill
The plains are like a friend
Why can't we live on them?
And if a flood should come
Why can't we run?
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
I am the lion
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Bellowing out in the night
(Ahh) We had a cow
(Ahh) I left it alone to graze
(Ahh) And walked to the stream
And when I returned
(Ahh-ahh-ahh) It was stolen away
But now the cow is gone
And we don't need a farm
We have not one thing they
Would steal away
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
I am the lion
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Bellowing out in the night
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
I am the lion
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Bellowing out in the night
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
I am
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
The lion
