"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]
