Mozambique" is a song written by Bob Dylan and Jacques Levy that was originally released on Dylan's 1976 album Desire. It was also released as a single and reached on the Billboard Hot 100. At the time of the song's release, the titular country of Mozambique had just emerged from a ten-year insurgency war against Portugal which led to Mozambique's independence. Mozambique had gained independence on June 25, 1975, only about a month before the song was recorded.

Dylan had visited France for a good while before making Desire.

Mozambique" was recorded on July 30, 1975 at Columbia Recording Studios in New York City. Seven attempts were made at the song on July 29, but the final version that appears on Desire is the fourth and final take from the 30th. The song features harmony vocals by Emmylou Harris and violin by Scarlet Rivera; Dylan.
