They take us away from Africa With the intention to steal our culture The good father pass by and say Humble yourself, my little one Humble yourself, my children Humble yourself Oh, my brothers, it is Wadada wo-ho-ho wadada Who I-lier than I-ly Wadada wo-ho-ho wadada Means love in Africa Wadada wo-ho-ho wadada Love universally My interpretation love universal Wadada wo-ho-ho wadada Love in Africa, love in America Love in Canada Wadada wo-ho-ho wadada Who I-lier than I-ly Wadada wo-ho-ho wadada Every knee shall bend (shall bend, shall bend) Every tongue shall tell (shall tell, shall tell) Down in this valley, down in this valley Down in this valley of Jehoshaphat Where is your love, Jamaicans? Where is your love, Jamaicans? Where is your love, Jamaicans? I can't see your love, I can't feel your love Nor even touch your love, I don't know 'bout your love Taught them the way to love one another Wadada wo-ho-ho wadada Who I-lier than I-ly Wadada wo-ho-ho wadada Black guidance be with I Wadada wo-ho-ho wadada Even within I-man black race (Wadada wo-ho-ho wadada) no plague shall come up on I, to eat up I flesh (Wadada wo-ho-ho wadada) keep them away Wadada Keep them away Wadada (Wadada wo-ho-ho wadada) black Wadada Revive for I and I (wadada wo-ho-ho wadada) Food, clothes and shelter (Wadada wo-ho-ho wadada) Grant unto I, my heart's desire (Wadada wo-ho-ho wadada) Each and every one entitled to their heart's desire (Wadada wo-ho-ho wadada) Bear with I and I and I (Wadada wo-ho-ho wadada) They take us away from Africa
