Artist/Band: Allan Taylor
Lyrics for Song: Boy Is A Nation
Lyrics for Album: Out Of Time [1991]



'Boy' is a nation with fire in its soul

Tired of living in one stinking hole

Townships of cardboard, paper and tin

Nothing to lose but to win



Tell me how long, mayibuye Africa

How long, mayibuye Africa

How long, mayibuye Africa

How long, mayibuye Africa



'Boy' feeds his family, does what he's told

Digging for diamonds, mining for gold

Emptying garbage, cleaning the street

Nothing to wear on his feet



Tell me how long, mayibuye Africa

How long, mayibuye Africa

How long, mayibuye Africa

How long, mayibuye Africa



Two weeks a year he goes home to his wife

Planting his seed, continuing life

Building the numbers, filling the line

It's only a matter of time



Tell me how long, mayibuye Africa

How long, mayibuye Africa

How long, mayibuye Africa

How long, mayibuye Africa



When man is denied a piece of his land

Violence comes by unspoken command

One piece of land to nurture and farm

One piece of land for a home



Tell me how long, mayibuye Africa

How long, mayibuye Africa

How long, mayibuye Africa

How long, mayibuye Africa



'Boy' is a nation with fire in its soul

Tired of living in one stinking hole

Townships of cardboard, paper and tin

Nothing to lose but to win



Tell me how long, mayibuye Africa

How long, mayibuye Africa

How long, mayibuye Africa

How long, mayibuye



Oh, tell me how long, mayibuye Africa

How long, mayibuye Africa

How long, mayibuye Africa

How long, mayibuye Africa

How long, mayibuye Africa

How long, mayibuye Africa
