well jo'anna
She runs a country
She runs in durban
And the transvaal
She makes a few
Of her people happy
Oh she don't
Care about
The rest at all
She's got a system
They call apartheid
It keeps a brother
In a subjection
But maybe pressure
Can make jo'anna see
How everybody
Could a live as one
imme hope jo'anna
Gimme hope jo'anna
Hope jo'anna
Fore the morning
Come
Gimme hope jo'anna
Gimme hope jo'anna
Hope before
The morning come
hear she makes
All the golden money
To buy new weapons
Any shape of guns
While every mother
In the black
Soweto fears
The killing
Of another son
Sneakin' across
All the neighbours'
Borders
Now and again
Having little fun
Little fun
She doesn't care
If the fun
And games she play
Is dangerous
To everyone
imme hope jo'anna
Gimme hope jo'anna
Hope jo'anna
Fore the
Morning come
Gimme hope jo'anna
Gimme hope jo'anna
Hope before
The morning come
he's got supporters
In high up places
Who turn their heads
To the city sun
Jo'anna give them
The fancy money
Oh to tempt
Anyone who'd come
She even knows
How to swing opinion
In every magazine
And the journals
For every bad
Move that
This jo'anna makes
They got a good
Explanation
imme hope jo'anna
Gimme hope jo'anna
Hope jo'anna
Fore the morning
Come
Gimme hope jo'anna
Gimme hope jo'anna
Hope before
The morning come

Who works for jesus
The archbishop
Who's a peaceful man
Together say that
The freedom
Fighters will
Overcome the
Very strong
I wanna know
If you're
Blind jo'anna
If you wanna hear
The sound of drum
Can't you see that
The tide is turning
Oh don't make me
Wait till
The morning come
imme hope jo'anna
Gimme hope jo'anna
Hope jo'anna
Fore the morning
Come
