America Lyrics by Alborosie

Escape From Babylon

2009

[Intro]
America!
America!
[Verse 1]
Hey! America come to fyah di big gun
I and I see di old church bun dung
America trick we and go always from di truth
I and I behind Jesus suit, well!
Stars and stripes nuh is not my salvation
Dem want fi globalize di world wid di Americanization
Uncle Sam bury Johnny inna Vietnam
Dem waan go bury Johnny again inna Afghanistan
[Chorus]
America! - call back your soldiers!
America! - move wey from Africa!
America! - call back your soldiers!
America! - move wey from Africa!
[Verse 2]
Wooy! America marching from Iraq to Botswana
And searching fi right dung in every corna
America send you chopa in Angola
Collect a diamond from Congo straight to Ghana
America, why you turn yuh back to New Orleans?
You need an humble president fi no shotta thing
You need to wash your dutty clothes dem with your own water
And stop abusing in every sources inna Africa
[Chorus]
America! - call back your soldiers!
America! - move wey from Africa!
America! - call back your soldiers!
America! - move wey from Africa!
[Verse 3]
Ooy! Mi sick and tired of political games
America fyah gun inna Jesus name
We sing what we know and what we understand
Cah Rastafari God is a living man
America fool some people sometimes
But you can't fool Rasta people at no time
So long time we call fi lightning
America just stop di fighting, well!
[Chorus]
America! - call back your soldiers!
America! - move wey from Africa!
America! - call back your soldiers!
America! - move wey from Africa!
