Kum-Ba-Ya

Kum-Ba-Ya, My Lord, Kum-Ba-Ya

Kum-Ba-Ya, My Lord, Kum-Ba-Ya

Kum-Ba-Ya, My Lord, Kum-Ba-Ya

O Lord, Kum-Ba-Ya

 

Someone’s crying My Lord, Kum-By-Ya

Someone’s crying My Lord, Kum-By-Ya

Someone’s crying My Lord, Kum-By-Ya

O Lord, Kum-Ba-Ya

 

Someone’s singing . . .

Someone’s praying . . .

Someone’s laughing . . .

 

Kum-Ba-Ya, My Lord, Kum-Ba-Ya

Kum-Ba-Ya, My Lord, Kum-Ba-Ya

Kum-Ba-Ya, My Lord, Kum-Ba-Ya

O Lord, Kum-Ba-Ya

 

Sillier version:

There is also a sillier version of the song which changes the lyrics slightly. The song is still sung in the same way but with these verses:

Kum-Ba-Ya, my Lord

Come By Car, my Lord

Cucumber, my Lord

Columbia, my Lord
