A place called Africa

Theres a place called Africa, far, far away, whoa, woo
Theres a place called Africa, many miles away
Mama says thats where were from
And I know she cant be wrong
Take me back to Africa
Mama, how did I get here?
How did I stray?
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
She said, 'Once upon a time, my son
They stowed us on a ship
We had to work and slave each day
The boss, he took our pay'
But a brighter sun has dawned today
They cant stop us, come what may
A time shall come for you and I
She bowed her head and cried, whoa, whoa
Mama, please dont cry
Theres a place called Africa, far, far away, whoa, whoa
Theres a place called Africa, many miles away
A brighter sun has dawned today
They cant stop us, come what may
A time shall come for you and I
She bowed her head and cried, whoa, whoa
Mama, please dont cry
Theres a place called Africa, far, far away
