"Rift Valley Drifters" by Roy Zimmerman

[kaimialana]

This is great, but what is with the COMMENTS?!

[arrdeee]

The lyrics to this song need to be updated vis a vis the recent information about Neanderthals and Homo Sapiens sharing DNA. Hmm. Whom should we not act like now?

[lildoeidgrl45]

Love it!!!

[avatb]

I love this song, and all your songs!

[rayraydude1]

Yes, I agree we need a Rift Valley Drifter T-shirt. Maybe have a map of the world with australopithecus afarensis and homo sapien on africa,neanderthal and homo sapien on europe&middle east, homo erectus and homosapien in both china and java and just homo sapeins on the americas and australia, with arrows pointing the routes taken.Just a thought.

[themitch1966]

His bio says he shared the stage with Bill Maher. Really something to be proud of, Roy.

[drServitus]

@drServitus Yeah robbie, lets go for 3 to nothing.You are so easy. I bet that's why your boyfriend likes about you!

[drServitus]

@dnServitus my goodness robbie, could it be you lost TWO channels? robertjohnson487 and drServutis? My my my. I like your laugh robbie. it makes me laugh.

[drServitus]

@dnServitus Wow robbie. Yeah. Looks like sombody did loose their channel. You've been played like a fiddle.

[drServitus]

@drServutis Well someone is being humiliated here, thats for sure!

[drServitus]

@drServutis Uh... I'm using it robbie. Are yo OK?

[drServitus]

@drServutis (please don't give up on me because i am a terrible speller robbie. I'll try to do better. Please teach me to be a "person of substance"

[drServitus]

@drServutis Yes robbie, you got me right. I am a "person of substance wannabe". I wish i could be a person of substance like you. Can yo teach me?

[drServitus]

@drServutis Oh boo hoo. woo is me. I am such a looser.

:D

[drServitus]

@drServutis oh robbie you have defeated me. I feel so ashamed. How can I ever live with myself!

[drServitus]

@drServutis Hey robbie can you please explain how you are the "master" again? I am so depressed over my dead wife and so sad about my two children being motherless, so sad about being 698 lbs and dependent on everybody for everything, i can not do my phD research work anymore.

And this channel "drSevitus" means SOO much to me...I am just quivering in your presence robbie!

[drServitus]

@drServutis Oh robbie. Did you actually use your REAL name on YT? Wow. You are clueless.

[drServitus]

@drServutis Oh robbie.. I am shaking in my boots...please release me...

[drServitus]

@drServutis Yes i do feel useless robbie. Very useless. Can you help me? Please give me words of wisdom.

[CMSVeritas]

Please put spaces after your punctuation.

[mabhekaphansi]

Luverly! But, uh, we are STILL here in Africa! It's only you drifters that were silly enough to leave this magnificent continent!

[drfoxcourt]

"serengeti up!: Hahahahaha.

Two opposable thumbs up for Roy Zimmerman

[Eopyk]

This song is awsome in every way

[RadicalWhig]

Excellent last line - made me laugh!

[ficklefiend]

Love it.

[fcas2y6]

Roy, this logic is science 101. Like the Anarchists of old whats wrong with tossing a doobie? Thought crime is still legal? Arghhhrets

[drServitus]

Intellegent and talented.

Thank you Mr. Zimmerman, you made my day better!

[nestorrfortuna]

go and buy some cds for the anniversary of the jewish zombie.... to give to family and enemies

[drServitus]

@robertjohnson487 Fuck you. Did I spell that right?

[drServitus]

@robertjohnson487 Wow. Check my messages often? I have a life.Obviously you are a bored house wife (probably 5' 5", about 220 lbs? Maybe 240?) who has nothing bettter to do all day then spell check on FB.You are pathetic.

If your just going to be a condescending bitch why don't you just go back to watching "The View" and drinking your self to death?

I admit you are a much better speller. You happy now cunt?

[drServitus]

@robertjohnson487 Ever heard of the saying "if you can't say anything positive don't say anything at all"?Especially if your just going to insult someone?

I comment on this guys increadable tallent and you act like a jerk.Grow up or get used to getting called out for being a jerk.

:)

[drServitus]

@robertjohnson487 You know i am so impressed with your spelling skills.I am truly humbled.I am now bowing down in front of my computer in reverance and awe at your magnificent spelling prowess.

Was the highlight of your life winning your 5th grade spelling bee?What was the word that put you over?Was it arrogance?

Perhaps they should require spelling bee participants to know the definition of words in addition to the truly wonderful skill they have mastered (spelling).

Keep Spellin!

[drServitus]

@robertjohnson487 Why do you do this? (Harass people on YT)

[drServitus]

@robertjohnson487 "People with healthy minds are not concerned that every word they print on a site like this is perfect."

Did you just post that?

Isn't that EXACTLY what the fuck you did to start this all off?

Jesus fucking christ, GET A LIFE!

[drServitus]

@robertjohnson487 What fucking asswipe you are.Just saw your post on a Led Zeppelin channel.

Of course you missed spelled Zeppelin.More then once.

Looked at a couple of other sites you commented on.All you do is give people shit.

robertjohnson487.Why don't you get that stick out of your fucking piece of shit ass and become a human being.Whats the matter you tired of sucking dick or your boyfriend left you and now you get your jollies on YT by harassing people?

What a fucktard.

[drServitus]

@robertjohnson487 You make good points.I think research has also shown that when homosexuals, like your self, experience a great loss, like when your ...what did you call him... your chockolate popsicle that you love to lick till the white goo slides down your throat....(goddamn when you told me that, I vomited for weeks.My wife almost took me to the ER, she was so worried about me) leaves them, the homosexual tends to lash out at society in unhealthy ways.Please find another man to love.

:)

[drServitus]

@robertjohnson487 Robert?Don't you remeber my wife and I both going to the pro-gay marriage rally where I stood up and spoke about you and how proud I was of you and, I think It was Tyrone you were dating then (or was it Andre)?.How proud I was to see you finally come out of the closet and express your true self?And when you told the crowd you were a "catcher" not a "pitcher" and the crowd went wild?

You know ,for as long as I have known you, I had not realized you played baseball.

;)

[drServitus]

@robertjohnson487 Oh and by the way, In answer to your question, my wifes car passenger side seat does fold back, so the next time you borrow her car to take the flowers to the next wedding you guys plan (I was very impressed with the job you and Steve did at the Havershaw/Peterson wedding) you should be able to fit in all the flowers instead of making two trips.Don't worry about the gas you used last weekend.I know the economy is down and I want your buisness to take off.

;)

[drServitus]

@drServitus Heh. I just thought of something.Who is going to do your wedding when the pro-gay marriage passes?After seeing the wonderfull weddings you've catered (Sorry about the spelling, I know this annoys you, but I am trying to improve myself.I am taking all the advice you give me and using it.I will never tell you to stop as you know you are my best friend in the whole world) you have set a very high standard with the quality of your work.

May Jesus bless you on your journey.

[drServitus]

@robertjohnson487: If you and Steve play baseball, why don't you guys ever come over and play with us on Saturdays?You've seen us on Saturday nights in the empty lot just down from your house haven't you?I think our catcher position is filled, but we do need a good out fielder if you are interested.I think Pastor Parez is going to be our catcher this season.But he is not all that good.Maybe you could show us how you catch and show up the good Pastor.

Love of Christ allways.

[drServitus]

Hey robert could you unblock me from your channel?I don't know why you did that. I would like to send you some messages from Steve.I don't think you want these going out on the public do you?

He is a great guy and I think you are a great guy but when you two start going on about yor sex life it does annoy me.I know, as you said this is wrong.I don't think that I have any ill wishes towards people that find others of the same sex sexually atractive but I'm gonna go out on a limb here (contin)

[drServitus]

and just say when you and Steve were talking about your love life and went into such explicit details infront of that guys wife and he hit you? Well I think it is ok to love anybody you want, but keep the details to your self robert.

Anyway, Steve wants to talk to you.Can you please unblock him or me so as I can forward these messages to you instead of placing them on YT for everybody to see?As Steve is asking about some very strange things and I REALLY do not want to place them on YT.

[drServitus]

The love of christ be with you robertjohson487.(I could not agree more about what you said about that drunk rock and roll star.Drinking yourself to death is not setting a good example.)

Like you were saying the other day: If only he could have found the love of Jesus, he might have turned around his life and done some good with it instead of that horrible music he played.

Knowing you all these years, and you converting me to Jesus Christ, you have been such a blessing to me robert.

[drServitus]

How can I ever repay you?You gave me the love of Christ.You showed me that homosexual people are good, moral, decent contributors to society by the way you live your life (which is a fine example of moral living if there ever was one people.)

I will allways defend your life style to anybody that says it is wrong.You have tought me lessons that I will never forget and I will be in your debt forever.I love you robert, not like Andre or Tyrone or Steve love you but like a brother.

[drServitus]

You are my brother robert and I love you and I am not afraid to say it.

You have shown me the love of Jesus Christ and I am not afraid to say it.

You give me advice that is pricless (please continue) and has helped me turn my life around.

You are robertjohson487 : homsexual and proud of it, and I am proud to shout it to the world with you robertjohson487.

But please unlock your channel or I will have to give these comunications via YT and I am afraid they are very personal.

[drServitus]

And as one of my dearest friends I think these details of your sex life sould remain behind closed doors.

When you were telling me about the love of Jesus you said that some things should remain privat and somethings can be public.

Please pray with me now robert.Pray to Jesus to heal this world.Heal this world from its horrble grip on hatred.

robertjohnson487 is a great and loving man.

He gives me advice.

[drServitus]

@robertjohnson487 Oh now robie, you know you allways winn in our relationship.I'm just glad to have ya around.

;)

[drServitus]

I like when you win.I am 698 lbs and have no life.I eat twinkies all day long.I lost one in the folds of my fat last week and can't find it.I lost my cat in there too and can't find him.Can you help me robbie?You are the best.I was kinda borded before I met you.But you have given me somthing to look forward to.To just sit and type to you.I thought about being mad at you, as in my first post, but since I have no friends and you pay attention to me, I do not mind you.

Just keep loving me

:)

[drServitus]

What cha doin for thanksgiving robbie?If you and Steve want to come on over it will be cool.My wife is a great cook (I didn't get this fat on twinkies alone).You like football?I don't like it so much.It is kinda boring.But you will probable like watching the guys in thier uniforms.Do you play dugeons and dragons?I used too but have not in a while.When you guys come over we could break it all out again.Steve asked me to ask you if you had been a catcher yet with anybody else.

[drServitus]

Wow. He told me what a "catcher" is in Homosexual terms.You guys are crazy.But to each his own.Live and let live I say.If you want to gobble the cock so be it.What are you guys doin for christmas, or are you guys jewish or islamic?Hey I know that you have plans prob for new years, but you could come on over and celerate with us.What do you think?Kiss your Stevie pooh on new years with me and the misses?Just thinkin here.Since you like trolls are you going to dress up as a troll for halloween?

[drServitus]

Speaking of halloween, Steve wants to send you some pictures!I think he really misses you.He said since you are the "catcher" and halloween will soon be here he has something for you to catch.(I'm not going to repeat what he wants you to catch.He said you have caught his load before, so you will know what he means.)Steve says you are the best catcher he has ever pitched to.Can you guys please get back together? He says he will not make you gag anymore.

[drServitus]

@robertjohnson487 Hey Robie? Havn't heard from you. I miss you.Please talk to me some more.I ran out of twinkies and my wife is at work.I still can't find the cat.Ihope your not talking to me means that you and Steve are back together and you and him are buisy doing the homo thing that makes you so happy.I hope you have fun catching his load.I'll try to contact you in tomorrow.

The love and peace and grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you as allways robbie.

[drServitus]

@robertjohnson487 Hey robbie where are you?I miss you.Please post back.You are the highlight of my day.Are you and Steve playing baseball? (cause i know how much you like to catch his goo in your mouth.)After you get done blowing your boyfriend will you take a shower and talk to me again?

I miss you.

What ya doing for holloween? Got your troll out fit yet? Or did you say you are going as Judy Garland agani this year?

[robertjohnson487]

@drServitus All of the juicers by you on this video were on the YT harassment report too. I didn't realise until today such a reporting process existed. Did you? You'd think that YT would advertise it better. Then again they'd get over-whelmed. Steve says hi btw. It's been fun, Jonny.

[drServitus]

@robertjohnson487 There you are robbie! Oh now c'mon robbie, you know clear and well the reporting processes here at YT. (I think you had better put the bong down robbie, you are starting to forget things!) Remember you reported that homophobic guy that told you you were going to hell for your "d*ck sucking ways"? I support you 100% robbie. You can suck as many penises as you like! (But when you did it to the dog, well I have to draw the line some where robbie. Sex with animals is wrong.)

[drServitus]

@robertjohnson487 is an arab pedophile troll. That bring back any memories robbie? :) Wanna keep this up dip shit?  Please report me some more. Or just go back to giving head to your dog.

[drServitus]

@robertjohnson487 robbie, where are you?

[flyingsod]

Why are you doing a war dance on that tiny bush?

[nestorrfortuna]

it is an allegorical symbolism of stomping on BUSH (george W)

[gunapie]

you did it again - makes me want to leave Georgia and move to San Fran.

[nestorrfortuna]

stay, do not poison SF, kidding

[szrgirl]

I'm with you! I live in Georgia... ugh, right?

[mamolian]

lmao the wink after the Neanderthal joke .. awesome ;))

[adugas]

Impressive how Ann Coulter and Newt are targeting your videos with ads! Insane and savvy.

[szrgirl]

I can't wait to buy your Real American cd. The last bit was great! Thanks for presenting things in ways to open minds through teeny avenues less traveled.  Cool.

[janegael]

Oh Puleeeze, Roy, put a Rift Valley Drifter T-shirt on your site for us to buy. Please, please!

[dbascome]

Thank you Roy. I've enjoyed your music for a while now. You never fail to hit the mark!

[kaysandesses]

Brilliant! Thanks Roy!

[art101tv]

Another gem, Roy. Yippee kye yi yippee!

[Ymedath]

Your knack for internal rhyme never fails to impress. Love hearing new stuff from you.

[Ginnna]

The ending was the best! Take THAT, birthers!

[Uhave2laff]

As usual Roy, you ROCK.

[vigwig]

Let's hear it for the Bushmen!

Great Roy!

[caseyspaos]

'scuse me Roy. Did you say all Western people are descendants of Mohamed?

[janegael]

I'm a Rift Valley Drifter!! I've waited for 6 decades to finally find true identity. I might be born an American, but the reality is that I'm a Rift Valley Drifter and damn proud of it. This song rocks!!

[kaysandesses]

We need a Rift Valley Drifter t-shirt!

[NaytronNeanderer]

Our evolutionary history is so weird!

[ExCreationist]

Oh Roy, you make me laugh.

[cskog001]

Arianne, California Maybe? Considering I'm pretty sure that's where Roy lives.

[ArianneHermida]

I was going to say it looks like you were in Arizona, but it's far too green to be Arizona.

[deathxninja]

lol. This is great. Not as hilarious as other songs, but delightful.

[EMBpodcast]

Enjoyed both the music & lyrics on this one. Thanks Roy!

[ErichoTTA]

We're all descended from Muhammad? I didn't know he was a Muslim.

[motaterztheone]

If by "we" you mean Western Europeans, then, yep, "we" are all directly descended from Muhammad. Some of Muhammad's descendants entered the "European" royal line in Seville, Leon and Castille in the 11th century. Those lines then entered into inter-dynastic royal marriages throughout western Europe. All people of Western European heritage are directly descended from those early dynastic lines.

[ErichoTTA]

I was joking.

[HailCthulhu]

That sounds only like the case for royalty, not the general population.

[hyperauxia]

we're not the tallest primate in the evolutionary line nor have humans grown taller through history. the direction of the trend goes both ways depending on the environment, sometimes we've tended shorter and other times taller. the nomadic tribes of the Great Plains were the tallest people in the world

anyway, kudos, the secular humorist delivers another splash

[motaterztheone]

I believe when Roy says, "You were born 3.5 million years ago", he's referirng to Australopithecus afarensis, the hominid that gave us Lucy, and the homid that was the first -- or one of the first -- to stand on two feet. So when he says, "You had hair all over your feet, and you grew to 3 or 4 feet" that's what he's talking about, and "you were even taller generations later" is referring to the taller genus Homo, including Homo sapiens.

[hyperauxia]

that's how I interpreted it, but the misconception that humans are progressively taller than ancestors is pervasive. Roy did not say that, he was only referring to one species followed by another, whichever they were

[NiteBlogger]

Another brilliant one!

[wraith1988]

very nice, musta been hot wearin that lol

[anmoose]

Excellent, Roy! You can sneak up on a topic better than anyone I know. LOL

[bdf2718]

Geek! Geek that makes puns!

Wonderful. Thanks, Roy.

[ArianneHermida]

Yesterday, I had to write an essay for my english class explaining literary devices in a song or poem of our choice and why they were employed. Guess which song I chose?

[BennyQuixote]

Oh, you must mean the kinds of conservatives that looks at a label and then immediately makes judgments about people they don't know? And then immediately think liberals are wrong? And then think that, because they are liberals, they must, therefore, not listen to other people's arguments?

Yeah. Are you picking up on the irony here?

[jc8ward]

Serengeti up!

[sarcasticwit1]

Brilliant! You never cease to amaze!

You should make this your homepage feature vid.

Love you dude!

[bjoysmithful]

Excellent! Thank you. This needs to be on all the cable stations so people can learn the truth of our origins.

Can't we all just get along?

[Jambeeno]

Serengeti-up. lol

[shamelessbookworm]

I very much enjoyed this.

[Paxmax]

*sniffles* So great *tears* awesome.... *applaudes*

[BennyQuixote]

You know, it's comments like that that start the forty page flame wars that devolve into name-calling. Maybe you should just stop talking to anonymous people like that and be a little more constructive.

[DagnirGlaurunga]

Actually, this would make for an awesome Obama speech.

[garywdean]

"We've all got a birth cirtificate from Kenya." Amen to that. Brilliant as always.

[LilithMaura]

Love the song, but what did that poor little scrub do to deserve being stomped on so much? :-)

[timestarvedcd]

Advocated terrorism

[TousVous]

HAHAHAHAHA

Love the clopity clop sound at the front.

Genius as always.

[comface]

"The first real real Americans were Russian... and then indian."

This really threw me off until I thought about it. D'oh!

[comface]

I can't be the only person who didn't fully understand all of that...

...rewatching.

[BadBoyFLSTC]

LOL, Roy you are great!

[ArianneHermida]

Another great song. I can't wait for the new CD!

[IntrepidStranger]

YAY!!

[DecksYourSystem]

Epic :)

[neoclassicism]

"Messed it up real bad" indeed!

[AncientAtheist]

I think he wanted to say "fucked it up real bad", but it wouldn't have been as inclusive. :)

[smhussain62]

Zimmerman, you da man. :-D

Good work, but "Dear Number" is still my favourite. In fact it's on my favourites. How 'bout that?

[cdfox85]

LOL! Great job!

[CarolBlanchard1]

Unsurprisingly wonderful! All of your songs are fabulous, but the ones on which you two collaborate, are the best! ......... In my humble opinion, of course!

[Truthiness231]

Best... song... ever...

[1000jrb]

Fantastic. Thank you once again for a great tune and even better lyrics.

[Aanthanur]

Brilliant! I love it.

only 260 years ago they would have burned you just for the opening lines :D

[Teleprompter4Life]

"We've all got a birth certificate from Kenya."

Absolutely brilliant! I am laughing so hard right now.

[no1saphead]

stomping on the only flowering plant,Hope there isnt any african bees out and about.

[bujin1977]

Great stuff, as usual!

[TomatoBreadOrgasm]

"Drifted out across the world and... Messed it up real bad."

Brilliant!

[a2zdiy]

Great song - and just gotta love the flower stomping bit.

[WesternWhiteWolf]

That was awesome! We are one big disfunctional family, that's for sure.

[slurswhentalking]

You seldom disappoint and I shall use this latest exhibition to strengthen my point. Keep at it, you entertaining bastard, you :-) The world should be so informed.

[nekedemus]

Great: But why the insult to the Neanderthals.

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

Excellent

[CognosSquare]

I have a bulge on my genes for Roy.

[TomatoBreadOrgasm]

You should get that looked at.

[WineisyourFriend]

out-friggin-standing!

"maybe then you'll stop acting like such a friggin neanderthal"

"we've all got a birth certificate from Kenya" LOL

[peoplesopium]

great as always. 5 stars.

[debbieomi]

:::clap clap clap:::

[deborahvk]

Hey Roy & Melanie,

This is fabulous. I'm sending it on to my sister, the biology teacher, right now!

Love,

Deborah

[dominictemple]

Great stuff Roy, brilliant Western song!

[kaljam]

Big fan, but this was boooooooooring.

[tarni2222]

Funny video ;) have you been training your vibrato or what is up with the long notes? show-off! ;)

[rednecktrucker1969]

Not bad at all. Country aint my bag, but the words are great.

[Scoforever]

You misled with Mitochondrial Eve.

watch?v=OjdZ5GmU61o

[hoodyman216]

Even though no one but me could hear, I applauded at the end of the video. This might very well be the best song you've written. Keep it up!

[deauvillimus]

Good stuff. I really do not understand why Roy isn't more popular outside the reasonable community of YOUTUBE.

I like this guy.

[8WholeThing]

That's the most cerebral Western ballad I have ever heard!

[blackwolf1272]

nice tags: "Holvind", "huminism" :)

great conglomeration of science and music. nice way to tell the neanderthals what's up.

[CousinoMacul]

We can all have our "Kenyan birth certificate" mapped if we want. ;-)

[ColAbernathy]

All of a sudden, I'm reminded of The Three Amigos.

Where's the turtle?

Great track, Roy. Keep up the good work!
