The Meters Lyrics
"Africa"

Take me back
Hold my hand
All the way back
To the motherland
Take me back
I want to go back

Take me back
And my funky ass band
All the way back
To the motherland
Take me back

I want to go
As fast as I can
Slidin' on back
To the motherland
Now children
Africa...

I want to get up and go
With my funky ass jams
All the way back
To the motherland
Take me back
I want to go back

Africa...

Where the women
Is the women
And the man
Is the man

I want to go
As fast as I can
Slidin' on back
To the motherland
Now children
