Sanatçı: Sweet Honey In The Rock

albüm: Live At Carnegie Hall

Working in the mines from dawn till dusk
I'm getting no money, I'm getting nowhere
The diamonds, the gold, they filter through my hands
Just like the Kruger on the coin of death
My soul's in a state of emergency
Hey, my soul is in a state of emergency, yeah
My soul is in a state of emergency
Emergency
♪
Thousands laid on the funeral pyre
My sister, my brother, never afraid
They keep on marching and they keep on singing
With yesterday's coffin on their head
My soul's in a state of emergency, yeah
I tell you, my soul is in a state of emergency, yeah
Hey, emergency
♪
Emergency
♪
Well, I'm looking up to heaven for some clear sign
For who to kill now or who to let be
See, when you got no freedom and your family is gone
Everybody is your enemy
Apartheid's in a state of emergency, yeah
I tell you, it's in a state of emergency, yeah
My soul is in a state of emergency
Emergency
Emergency
Emergency
♪
So people of the world, we've gotta right this here wrong
We'll wake to the sun and we'll sleep through the breeze
We walk hand in hand to the freedom's drum
For South Africa, she's got to be free of this emergency
We gon' be so free of this emergency
We gon' be so free
It gonna be you and me
Got to be so free of this emergency
Emergency
Emergency
Emergency
