I have been given the lyrics for the above song by a friend who wrote them out thirty-odd years ago, but he doesn't know who it was written by, or when. The first verse goes as follows:


" Walking along by the side of a pack-horse, underneath the African sky,
The road it was dusty, the sun it was hot, the coconut trees they grew high,
The shining bodies of six black men, bearing their heavy loads.
Twenty-five miles from Kimweze on the Kilimanjaro Road"

I have all the verses, as far as I know, but would be interested to find out the provenance.
