Artists United Against Apartheid - Sun City lyrics
rate meWe're rockers and rappers united an strong (Run DMC)
We're here to talk about South Africa we don't like what's
going on (Grandmaster Melle Mel & Duke Bootee)
It's time for some justice it's time for the truth
(Afrika Bambaataa & Kurtis Blow)
We've realized there's only one thing we can do
(Big Youth & All Rappers)
I ain't gonna play Sun City
Relocation to phoney homelands (David Ruffin)
Separation of families I can't understand (Pat Benatar)
23 million can't vote because they're black (Eddie Kendrick)
We're stabbing our brothers and sisters in the back
(Bruce Springsteen)
I ain't gonna play Sun City
Our government tells us we're doing all we can (George Clinton)
Constructive Engagement is Ronald Reagan's plan (Joey Ramone)
Meanwhile people are dying and giving up hope
(Jimmy Cliff & Daryl Hall)
This quiet diplomacy ain't nothing but a joke (Darlene Love)
I ain't gonna play Sun City
Bopusthuswana is far away (Run DMC)
But we know it's in South Africa on matter what they say
(Kurtis Blow, Run DMC, Afrika Bombaataa)
You can't buy me I don't care what you pay
(Duke Bootee, Grandmaster Melle Mel, Afrika Bombaataa)
Do'nt ask me Sun City because I ain't gonna play
(Linton Kwesi Johnson & All Rappers)
I ain't gonna play Sun City
It's time to accept our responsibility (Bonnie Raitt)
Freedom is a privilege nobody rides for free
(Ruben Blades & John Oates)
Look around the world baby it can't be denied (Lou Reed)
Why are we always on the wrong side (Bobby Womack)
I ain't gonna play Sun City
Relocation to phoney homelands (Jackson Browne & Bob Dylan)
Separation of families I can't understand (Peter Garrett)
23 million can't vote because they're black (Nona Hendryx & Kashif)
We're stabbing our brothers and sisters in the back (Bono)
