Babies on Bodas


Just in time for the holiday season here is my rendition of “My Favorite Things.”  Please sing along below.  I have provided you with a YouTube link to the beloved Sound of Music song, My Favorite Things: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSUyD1I9OoU. 

Babies on bodas, a goat tied on back
Off to the market, the things we will pack
Black plastic bags all tied up with strings
These are a few of Uganda’s things!

Cold bucket baths and laundry by hand
Fresh vegetable picks, which come from the land
Women and children heard at the church sing
These are a few of Uganda’s things!

Girls fetching water while boys play football
People riding on taxis, which later they’ll stall
Butterflies flutter with colorful wings
These are a few of Uganda’s things!

When the sun sets and the bugs bite
When I’m feeling sad,
I simply remember
Babies on bodas
And then I don’t feel so bad!

Babies on bodas, a goat tied on back
Off to the market, the things we will pack
Black plastic bags all tied up with strings
These are a few of Uganda’s things!
