Come join the circle and witness the magic |
|
Hear the voices |
|
Believe and imagine |
|
Hear the voices |
|
Come join the circle and feel the unspoken |
|
Hear the voices |
|
A spirit unbroken |
|
Hear the voices |
|
Just a simple storyteller |
|
Troubadour on call whenever |
|
The gods moved his heart to speech |
|
He was something of a hero |
|
To the conscience of the people |
|
To the children on the beach |
|
Son of africa and legend |
|
Music made of pain and pleasure |
|
Brought the nation to its feet |
|
Every whisper sounds like thunder |
|
Everybody stares in wonder |
|
When the saints begin to speak |
|
He sings and then they speak |
|
Come join the circle and witness the magic |
|
Hear the voices |
|
Believe and imagine |
|
Hear the voices |
|
Come join the circle and feel the unspoken |
|
Hear the voices |
|
A spirit unbroken |
|
Hear the voices |
|
He was sentenced into exile |
|
Far away from home but meanwhile |
|
Popularity increased |
|
Radio reversed his fortune |
|
He was welcomed with emotion |
|
A voice no one could defeat |
|
Now they crank up the victrola |
|
In the corner bars and oh, my, |
|
How the ladies start to weep |
|
Every word describes their hunger |
|
Everybody stares in wonder |
|
When the saints begin to speak |
|
He sings and then they speak |
