Lyrics Gimme Hope Jo'Anna

Well Jo'anna she runs a country
She runs in Durban and the Transvaal
She makes a few of her people happy oh
She don't care about the rest at all
She's got a system they call apartheid
It keeps a brother in a subjection
But maybe pressure can make Jo'anna see
How everybody could a live as one
Oh gimme hope
Jo'anna gimme hope
Jo'anna gimme hope
Jo'anna 'fore the morning comes
Gimme hope
Jo'anna gimme hope
Jo'anna hope before the morning comes
I hear she make all the golden money
To buy new weapons any shape of guns
While every mother in black Soweto fears the killing of another son
Sneakin' across all the neighbors' borders now and again having little fun
She doesn't care if the fun and games she play is dangerous to everyone
Gimme hope
Jo'anna gimme hope
Jo'anna gimme hope
Jo'anna 'fore the morning comes
Gimme hope
Jo'anna gimme hope
Jo'anna hope before the morning comes
She's got supporters in high up places
Who turn their heads to the city sun
Jo'anna give them the fancy money oh to tempt anyone who'd come
She even knows how to swing opinion
In every magazine and the journals
For every bad move that this Jo'anna makes they got a good explanation
Oh gimme hope
Jo'anna gimme hope
Jo'anna gimme hope
Jo'anna 'fore the morning comes
Gimme hope
Jo'anna gimme hope
Jo'anna hope before the morning comes
Even the preacher who works for Jesus
The Archbishop who's a peaceful man
Together say that the freedom fighters will overcome the very strong
I want to know if you're blind Jo'anna
If you want to hear the sound of drums
Can't you see that the tide is turning?
Oh don't make me wait 'till the morning come
Oh gimme hope
Jo'anna gimme hope
Jo'anna gimme hope
Jo'anna 'fore the morning comes
Gimme hope
Jo'anna gimme hope
Jo'anna hope before the morning comes
Gimme hope
Jo'anna gimme hope
Jo'anna gimme hope
Jo'anna 'fore the morning comes
Gimme hope
Jo'anna gimme hope
Jo'anna hope before the morning comes
Gimme hope
Jo'anna
