Fantastic - have been singing this for years but didn't quite know lyrics, or who sung it, or what it was called - was on an old mix tape. So great!

Lyrics (end) : My father made me to know that my great great gandfather Came from the Congo in the Western Province of Katanga. But I can't remember his name, because it was too long. and if I called the name I might have to bite me tounge. All like Kasavubu and Patrice Lumumba Fighting to gain power over Katanga Colonel Mombutu and Justin Momboko rivaling Tshombe to be boss over the Congo Oh Congo bawa wa mojique berle arre baba arela ah roqo di mole, Mojique berle Congo, eh uwah Kosu.

Lyrics (beginning) It is sad but it's exiting, When I read the newspaper. About what's happening In the western province of Africa. Everybody's fighting, to get the fortune and fame. But it is amusing, When I read all the bosses names. Such as Kasavubu, and Antoine Gizenga Fighting to gain power over Katanga. Colonel Mombutu and Justin Momboko rivaling Tshombé to be boss over the Congo.
