Biko Drum

歌詞

And they went home on an Easter road On a silent night tryin' not to show Who goes where and who goes when Thinkin' some day soon they'll get it back again From the ghetto in Capetown to dig the gold Little boy blue can't be sold Under tin roof and a plastic wall Thinkin' someday soon we're goin' to leave it all And the renegades sing all the renegade songs And the ones who know hope they're doin' wrong The blacks and the coloreds play the Biko Drum Listen to the Biko Drum Transvaal Kids on a Transvaal day Little by little the show the way To a city of dreams and solid ground Thinkin' someday soon we're gonna come around Steve he's livin' in a prison cell All the friends that know hope he's doin' well Down here they listen to the Biko Drum Down here they listen to the songs he sung And the renegades sing all the renegade songs And the ones who know hope they're doin' wrong The blacks and the coloreds play the Biko Drum Listen to the Biko Drum Nelson listen to the people sing Nelson Mandela the people's king Twenty-five years in a white man's jail Twenty-five years we couldn't make him say And the renegades sing all the renegade songs And the ones who know hope they're doin' wrong The blacks and the coloreds play the Biko Drum Listen to the Biko Drum
