Yeah, yeah, you are my African queen
Ooh Lord, ooh Lord, mm
Just like the sun light up the earth
You light up my life, mm
The only one, I ever see with a smile so bright, eh
And just yesterday, you came around my way-ay-ay
You changed my whole scenery
With your astonishing beauty
Oh, you coulda make a brother sin, no ordinary thing
A supernatural being, and ooh
You are brighter than the moon
Brighter than the star, I love you just the way you are
And you are my African queen
The girl of my dreams
You take me where I never been, yeah
You make my heart go ding-a-ling-a-ling, oh ahh
You are my African queen
The girl of my dreams
And you remind me of a thing
And that is the African beauty
Yeah, yeah, ooh

Oh Lord, ooh Lord, hmm
Out of a million, you stand as one
The outstanding one, mm
I look into your eyes
Girl, what I see is paradise, ayy
You captivated my soul
Now every day I want you more
How can I deny this feeling I'm feeling inside? Ayy
No other cannot take your place
They cannot take your space
That is a fact that cannot erase
And ooh, you are the one that makes me smile
Make me float like a boat upon the Nile
Girl, you are my African queen
The girl of my dreams
You take me where I never been, yeah
You make my heart go ding-a-ling-a-ling, eh-ahh

Oh yes, I know mm
You are my African queen and I know
See I know
See I know what I am feeling in my heart and in my soul
Oh, I know that it is love
And I know that this love was surely sent from up above
'Cause you're the only one that I think of
You are my African queen
And I know that this means that you're the only one that I will serve
I'll give you my heart, my love, my body and my money
Every other thing you think of
In a man, who could think of anything better than you?
Who could think of ever hurting you?
Sacrifice my all, I'll give it all to you
You are my African queen for real
You are my African queen
The girl of my dreams (the girl of my dreams)
