Juluka - Gunship Ghetto lyrics

rate me

Gunship Ghetto -- steeleye stiletto<br />

Feather Pillow Dream<br />

Crazy boym your sister's crying<br />

Tell me where the hell you been<br />

Border Order Prison Warder<br />

Mortar Bomb Daughter Scream<br />

Gunship Ghetto -- steeleye stiletto<br />

I'm going to where history won't reach me<br />

To find where time stands still<br />

I need to find some peace of mind<br />

And if you let me in I probably will<br />

Chorus:<br />

Speak to the sky, there's no reply<br />

Just the endless empty blue<br />

While deep in the night, there is a fight<br />

Hamba madoda! Aya hamba madoda<br />

[March away men, the men are marching away]<br />

Sodibana pambliyo sodibana phambili yo!<br />

[We will meet up ahead]<br />

Paper holder holds a soldier<br />

Not yet born to be<br />

But six months older, he'll be much bolder<br />

See things he's never seen<br />

I need freedom, just like the next one<br />

But sometimes it doesn't do<br />

'Cause I need you to be there<br />

When I'm troubled<br />

I need to see this thing through with you<br />

Behind the barrel of a gun<br />

Love and friendship can become<br />

Just another point of view<br />

The battle is won but my heart overcome<br />

'Cause what is lost of part of you<br />

Chorus<br />

Hamba madoda! Aya hamba madoda<br />

I'm just marching away -- just marching away<br />

What do you say -- I'm just marching away<br />

Sebehambile hambile [They have all gone, all gone]<br />

Sebehambile hambile<br />

Umhlaba unzima sodibana phambile yo!<br />

[The world is a difficult place -- we shall meet up ahead]<br />

Umhlaba unzima sodibana phambile yo!
