Mandela Day Lyrics - Street Fighting Years - Simple Minds

It was 25 years they take that man away 

Now the freedom moves in closer every da 

Wipe the tears down from your saddened eyes 

They say Mandela's free so step outside 

Oh oh oh oh Mandela day 

Oh oh oh oh Mandela's free 

It was 25 years ago this very day 

Held behind four walls all through night and day 

Still the children know the story of that man 

And I know what's going on right through your land

Na na na na Mandela day 

Oh oh oh Mandela's free 

If the tears are flowing wipe them from your face 

I can feel his heartbeat moving deep inside 

It was 25 years they took that man away 

And now the world come down say Nelson Mandela's free 

Oh oh oh oh Mandela's free 

The rising suns sets Mandela on his way 

Its been 25 years around this very day 

From the one outside to the ones inside we say 

Oh oh oh oh Mandela's free 

Oh oh oh set Mandela free 

Na na na na Mandela day 

Na na na na Mandela's free
