Where is the quote “There I was, there I was, there I was, IN the Congo” from?

Question by Susan B: Where is the quote “There I was, there I was, there I was, IN the Congo” from?
This is driving me nuts, but I heard this recently and can not remember where it’s from. I searched the interwebs, but all I get is people using the quote, not referencing the source. Thanks for the help!

    Funny, I just heard it tonight on 30 Rock and it was driving me nuts too trying to remember where I first heard it! Looking at the other results on Google (besides the one that led me to your question), I found the answer: A Bud Dry commercial “about [a] gal who has three loser dates: ‘There I was, there I was, there I was…IN the Congo!’; ‘My mother makes the best brisket’; and ‘Ah, you done eatin’ that?’”

(Dedicicated To Zulu Chief Shaka)

Hero who surpasses other heroes!
Swallow that disappears in the clouds,
Others disappearing into the heavens!
Son of Menzi!
Viper of Ndaba!
Erect, ready to strike,
It strikes the shields of men!
Father of the cock!
Why did it disappear over the mountains?
It annihilated men!
That is Shaka,
Son of Senzangakhona,
Of whom it is said, Bayede!
You are an elephant!
