What coube so bad about the East, everybody wants a piece
The city of Harare where Selassie com from
One and all lets trod the promised land
'Til I'm laid to rest, yes
'Til I'm laid to rest, yes
Some a save a bag a riches, yet they die empty hand
Always be depressed
Buju go down a Congo stopped in Shashamane Land
Tongues will have to confess
There's no life in the West
No longer will I expose my weakness
Africa for Africans, Marcus Mosiah speak
In Addis Ababa then Batswana
I know the East is the best
Than a rich man to enter a Zion
He who seeks knowledge begins with humbleness
All the propaganda they spread
'Til I'm laid to rest, yes
Africa for Africans, Marcus Mosiah speak
Only Ethiopia protect me from the cold
I'm in bondage living is a mess
All the food upon my table Massa God bless
The city of Harare where Selassie come from
Go on saying I'm stupid and laugh all you can
Our seeds shall be so many more than sand
Always be depressed
Take it from I man
No longer will I expose my weakness
Always be depressed
Organize and centralize come as one
What a day when we walk down Redemption Street
Ethiopia awaits all prince and princess
Left Kenya end up in Ghana
There's no life in the West
Tongues will have to confess
Banner on heads Bible inna we hands
Propaganda they spread
Unification outnumbers defeat
'Til I'm laid to rest, yes
Oh, what a beauty my eyesight behold
Banner on heads Bible inna we hands
I've got to rise up alleviate the stress
I've got to rise up alleviate the stress
Only Ethiopia protect me from the cold
So
Always be depressed
All the propaganda they spread
I know the East is the best, yes
For too long we've been under this band
Always be depressed
One and all lets trod the promised land
Tongues will have to confess
What coube so bad about the East, everybody wants a piece
Tongues will have to confess
Easier for a camel to go through a needle eye
All the food upon my table Massa God bless
I know the East is the best
I know the East is the best
Buju go down a Congo stopped in Shashamane Land
Tongues will have to confess
Work 7 to 7 but I'm still penniless
All the propaganda they spread
Unification outnumbers defeat
Ethiopia awaits all prince and princess
There's no life in the West
Some new and replenish pure and clean heart
I know the East is the best
Oh, what a beauty my eyesight behold
There's no life in the West
He who seeks knowledge begins with humbleness
There's no life in the West
All the propaganda they spread
What a day when we walk down Redemption Street
I'm in bondage living is a mess
All the propaganda they spread
Work 7 to 7 but I'm still penniless
I know the East is the best
There's no life in the West
In Addis Ababa then Batswana
'Til I'm laid to rest, yes
Holler for the needy and shelter less
Tongues will have to confess
Holler for the needy and shelter less
Left Kenya end up in Ghana
