Lyrics

Ten kilometers barefooted in the bush
Started raining on the way to fetch some water
Poor woman had a baby on her back
Was struck by lightening on the way
To fetch some water
To fetch some water
She tried hiding under a tree to save her child
Poor woman had no place to go
Lightening caught her with her baby on her back
Friends, relatives ran for her
But it was too late
Too late for mama
Too late
Too late for mama
Water
To fetch some water
Water
To fetch some water
Husband came running to the scene yeah
Poor man held his dead wife in his arms
Eyes full of tears not believing the nightmare
Knelt down and prayed, for this was a painful loss
Too late
Too late for mama
She's gone
It was too late
Too late
To fetch some water
To fetch some water
It was too late
Too late
Too late for mama
For mama
Mama with a little baby
She's gone
It's too late
