Apartheid

Peter Tosh

You in a me land

You’re in a me land

Dig out me gold, yes

In a me land

Digging out me pearls

In a me land

Dig out me diamonds

We a go fight, fight, fight, fight against apartheid

We got to fight, fight, fight, fight against apartheid

You’re in a me land

And you build up your 'partment

You’re in a me land

You build up your regimes

You’re in a me land

Only talk 'bout justice

You’re in a me land

Handing down injustice

We got to fight, fight, fight, fight against apartheid

Brothers got to fight, fight, fight, fight against apartheid

You’re in a me land

You no build no school for black children

You’re in a me land

No hospital for black people

You’re in a me land

You build your prison

You’re in a me land

You build their camp

We got to fight, fight, fight, fight against apartheid

We gonna fight, fight, fight, fight against apartheid

Africa’s for black man

There certain place in Africa

You take your might

Cross the border

To beat for right

We gonna fight, fight, fight, fight against apartheid

We got to fight, fight, fight, fight against apartheid

As for majority

Majority rule, yea

Who need minority

But that couldn’t rule, yeah

So we gon' fight, fight, fight, fight against apartheid

We gonna fight, fight, fight, fight against apartheid

You break off

Break off from Britain

You’re quite illiegal

Right where you are

You get your forces

From colonial powers

Taking my diamonds

Filling ballistic missiles

Now we haf gon fight, fight, fight, fight against apartheid

Black man got to fight, fight, fight, fight against apartheid

Come on then we’ll fight, fight, fight, fight against apartheid

We got to fight, fight, fight, fight against apartheid

We gonna fight, fight, fight, fight against apartheid

We got to fight, fight, fight, fight against apartheid
