Johnny Clegg Savuka Tell Him Again Lyrics

Tell Him Again Lyrics

Tell him again he don't care much to hear



Mtsheleni madoda akafuni ukulalele







I was talking to him again



But the never understands me



He thinks it is very strange



That I should question what he hands me



He can't imagine I have a feeling for what I can be







Hey brother! Listen to the river whenever you want to remember the sea



Hey brother! Listen to the feeling in your heart it also flows through me







CHORUS:



Tell him again - he don't care much to hear



Tell him again - I need my liberty



Tell him again - freedom's in the air



Tell him again - take these chains off me



Tell him again - he don't care much to hear



Tell him again - he is just like me



Tell him again - freedom's in the air



Tell him again - I was born to be free







We have all been sentenced to this life



Everyone is a defendent



We are all prisoners of time



We are destined to spend it



But we must be free to choose the way we serve the sentence







CHORUS







If there comes a time



I will take this life



And lay it down



For my liberty



Oh it's such a shame



Such a tragedy



But it's all I have



To make you see



All the air I breathe



All the things I have



They don't mean that much



If I can't be free







CHORUS







So long I've been waiting



All my heart is breaking



Freedom long forsaken



Together we can make it
