- Eddy Grant Gimme Hope Joanna 歌詞
- Eddy Grant
- Well Joanna she runs a country
She runs in Durban and the Transvaal
She makes a few of her people happy, oh
She dont care about the rest at all
Shes got a system they call apartheid
It keeps a brother in a subjection
But maybe pressure will make Joanna see
How everybody could a live as one
Oh gimme hope Joanna, hope Joanna
Gimme hope, Joanna fore the morning come
Gimme hope Joanna, hope Joanna
Hope before the morning come
I hear she makes all the golden money
To buy new weapons, any shape of guns
While every mother in a black Soweto fears
The killing of another son
Sneakin across all the neighbors borders
Now and again having little fun
She doesnt care if the fun and games she play
Is dangerous to everyone
Oh gimme hope Joanna, gimme hope Joanna
Gimme hope, Joanna fore the morning come
Gimme hope Joanna gimme hope Joanna
Hope before the morning come
Shes got supporters in high up places
Who turn their heads to the city sun
Joanna give them the fancy money
Oh to tempt anyone whod come
She even knows how to swing opinion
In every magazine and the journals
For every bad move that this Joanna makes
They got a good explanation
Oh gimme hope Joanna, gimme hope Joanna
Gimme hope, Joanna fore the morning come
Gimme hope Joanna gimme hope Joanna
Hope before the morning come
Even the preacher who works forJesus
The Archbishop whos a peaceful man
Together say that the freedom fighters
Will overcome the very strong
I wanna know if youre blind Joanna
If you wanna hear the sound of drums
Cant you see that the tide is turning
Oh dont make me wait till the morning come
Oh dont gimme hope Joanna, gimme hope Joanna
Gimme hope, Joanna fore the morning come
Gimme hope Joanna gimme hope Joanna
Hope before the morning come
Gimme hope Joanna, gimme hope Joanna
Gimme hope, Joanna fore the morning come
Gimme hope Joanna gimme hope Joanna
Hope before the morning come
