culture - war in sierra leone lyrics

b’woy, if yah see the remnant of sufferation and disgrace
where the english government left inna africa- dog b’woy
them have no respect for the people and act and a come g’waan like them decent
it was way down in west africa, way down in the slave country
i took a walk, i took a walk down in west africa
down in west africa
and there i found myself taking a short stop
way down in ghana
to tell them that me on ya
then after i took a rest i took a walk
way over to cape coast slave dungeon
to see what was happening (hear what the song say)
equal rights and justice stand for all
them a preach upstairs rights from downstairs (lord have mercy)
them rip up creation
slave trade continue until i found myself way over in
sierra leone
at the foot of lion mountain
it was around about christmastime
then i stop to have a drink of palm wine
but one thing- them want the people live like swine
they gave guns and bullets to the rebels and start to
teach them to fight each other for iamond
it was a diamond war (yet for whom?)
and all because there was nothing to gain
i’ve never seen the united nation cry peace again
so you nuh see the corruption (and i look at you)
out of the woodland
man a nah nuh fight none
stretch out your hand, put it out yourself
what do you want? long sleeve or short sleeve?
and them a take them cutl-ss and them chop it off
(your request now)
long sleeve them chop you on the wrist
short sleeve them a cut it to the arm
we have everything in paradise (my god)
here in the west
even them christmastime them song like a christmastime without light!!
from the woodland
just the sound of a bird.
when i woke up in my lonely cottage, listening to the song of each thing
and every man them a fight it don’t know who is gonna win
war in a africa
but it is extra slaughter there in sierra leone
one president fall down
