Song Lyrics
how can we sing in a strange land
it was looted from
catch star liner right now--africa
Father s mothers sons daughters every one, now you know seek the lion
catch star liner right now--africa
Ethiopia stretch forth her hand, closer to god we can
Don t want to sing in a strange land, right now man say repatriate repatriate, closer to god we can
Yellow for the gold, remember when we used to dress like kings
Red for the blood, marcus say sir marcus say
Rally round the red, how can we sing in a strange land Weight, it was looted from
Yellow for the gold, a bright shining star--africa
respect and authority--africa
Green for the land africa, one god one aim one destiny Weight, catch star liner right now--africa
How can we sing in a strange land, ethiopia stretch forth her hand In, four hundred million strong
It was looted from, climb ye the heights of humanity
Rally round the flag, in our hearts is mount zion, don t want to sing in a strange land
It was looted from, marcus say sir marcus say, a history no more a mystery--africa
Don t want to sing in a strange land, how can we sing in a strange land
How can we sing in a strange land, don t want to sing in a strange land no liberation true democracy
One god one aim one destiny, father s mothers sons daughters every one
Rally round the red, how can we sing in a strange land, remember when we used to dress like kings
Don t want to sing in a strange land, now you know seek the lion
Civilization far moved from caves, rally come rally rally come rally Gold, closer to god we africans
four hundred million strong
Black for the people, remember when we used to dress like kings, father s mothers sons daughters every one
Four hundred million strong, now you know seek the lion, rally round the flag
Yellow for the gold, conqueror of land conqueror of seas
