...Instrument... In my journey through the world Over land and over sea I see different cultures and Different people's ways I was born where the sun Never sets and never rises I was born where the heat Was like a second skin ...instruments... Children crying on the streets Automobiles are making noise The land is growing dry and weak Spirits lying low The fore-fathers are calling me Never tire never weaken The pride in me is bursting loose I am an African boy ...instruments... On the farm my father called me Down behind a tree He said prostrate at my feet And say a few prayers Then he told me all the stories Of my great ancestors Said look into my eyes son You were born to be great So in the twillight I went home Behind my father with a hoe Listening to the songs of birds Whispers of the night I was singing Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Seven goats, seven beads Seaven cowries, seven nuts Seven lives that's what I've got I'm an African boy Over sea, over land Over mountains in the wild I'll be brave and I'll be strong I'm an African boy ...instruments... In the evening mother called me Down into her hut She said lay upon my bossom And say a few prayers Then she told me to go forward Never looking back The spirits are with you And you will never fail So I go into the world Into the deeps, into the wild In the market place I dance The sound of baata Dancing Seven jumps, seven wringles Seven cowries, seven nuts Seven lives that's what I've got I'm an African boy Over sea, over land Over mountains in the wild I'll be brave and I'll be strong I'm an African boy
