Lucky Dube Lyrics
"Different Colours/one People"

Breaking those barriers

All over the world

Was not an easy thing

Yesterday your mouth was shut yeah

Couldn' t make a sound eh boy

But it' s such a good feeling today

When I can hear them from

Across the ocean singing this song

That the whole world should be singing

All the time

Chorus: (x3)

We' re...

Different colours / one people

Different colours / one people

Hey you government

Never try to seperate the people

Hey you politician

Never try to seperate the people

They were created in the image of God

And who are you to seperate them

Bible says, he made man in his image

But it didn' t say black or white

Look at me you see BLACK

I look at you I see WHITE

Now is the time to kick that away

And join me in my song

Chorus: (x3)

Hey you politician

Never seperate the people here

Hey you man hey you man

Never try to seperate the people

Some were from America

We were from South Africa

Some were from Japan

We were from China

Some were from Australia

We were from the U.K.

Some were from Zimbabwe

We were from Ghana

Some were from Jamaica

We were from Russia

Some were from Aha-ha-ha

We were from Uhu-hu-hu

Chorus till fade
