Mama Africa Lyrics - Peter Tosh

(CHORUS) 

Mama Africa 

How are you doing Mama 

Mama Africa 

Long time me no see you Mama 

They took me away from you Mama 

Long before I was born 

They took me away from you Mama 

Long before I came on in 

CHORUS 

There's so many things about you 

Wondering where you are 

They try their best to hide you Mama 

But I search and I find you 

CHORUS 

In you there's so much beauty 

In you there's so much life 

In you there's so many kingdoms 

To me it's out of sight 

CHORUS 

You're the maker of gold Mama 

You're the maker of diamond 

You're the maker of pearls 

And the maker of all precious goals 

CHORUS 

I've been waiting, yearning, looking 

Searching to find you 

I've been crying, praying hoping 

That I may find you Mama 

CHORUS 

You're my mother Africa 

You're my father Africa 

CHORUS I'm proud of you Mama 

I love you Mama 

I'm proud of you Mama 

I love you heavenly 

CHORUS
