Early-Mart Lyrics by Gideon Nxumalo

Early-Mart

0

[Verse 1]
He came Early
He died Early
The birds whose wings
Beat a steady rhythm
His skies were the streets
Of Sophiatown, Soweto, anywhere
Muddy, noisy, dirty, dark
Yet, he flew on and on
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
They heard him in Soweto
They dug him in the Cape
They saw him in Vrystaat
They loved him in Natal
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
The stage was his launching pad
The radio, his ear
The long-play, his pleasure
The people, his treasure
No more his song
No more his throbbing
Yes, thе Early Bird is no more
But his rhythm lives on
