Way from the tram stop,
[Fm] all the way to Soweto, [Eb]
looking for my husband, Udunol.
We last [Ab] saw Udunol [Fm] when he walked outside [Eb] the door to say,

I [Eb] went all the way.

[Ab] All the [Bb] way.

Big [Eb] land beyond one thousand eighteen.
Go on, go on, go on.
Go [Fm] on, go on, [Bb] go on.
[Eb]
[Fm] To number 6336.
[Bb]
[Eb] Out came a lady.
[G]

[Ab] Modern kind of [D] lady.
[Eb] I said, please, sweet cakes.
[F] I'm looking for my husband, but [Bb] no, [Eb] he said he was here.
[Ab] Describe him, she said, oh, [Bb] with [E] pleasure.
[Bb] [Eb] [G] My husband is a very tall, [Eb] handsome guy.
[Ab] With a big [Bb] afro,
[Eb] juicy, juicy lips.
[Fm] And very skinny legs.

You know her [Db] very well.
[Bb] She is your auntie [Eb] Zodwa.
She
[Ab] used [C] to put me in the [Bb] bathroom.
[Eb]
[Bb] [Ab] She said, that's not [Bb] if you just go over there and down [Eb] the hill and around that corner.
[Ab] [Bb]
[Eb] [Cm] You know, it's [Ab] very sad when a family [F] member [Cm] deserts you like [Bb] that.
