Harry Balafonte rhymes:

Coco' s got a lot of iron
Makes you strong like a lion

(in his song "Coconut")

Bob Marley rhymes:

I'm gonna be iron
like a lion
in *Zion

(in his song "Iron, lion, Zion")

Yet both songwriters are scions of twentieth century native "commonwealth"
English speakers.

*biblical for Jerusalem
