Africa (The Extended African Remix) Lyrics by Amadou & Mariam

0

[Intro]
Amadou! Knaan! (Bree Runway)
The original West Coast, East Coast collaboration rocking
[Verse 1]
News just in
Got Kylie, Madonna, got Justin
Can't trust him
Yeah, mama said throw him in the dustbin
Every time he on his own
Tell me lie-lie-lie-lie, lie-lie-lie-lie-lies
Baby's always on the road
Lemme dri-dri-dri-drive, dri-dri-dri-dri-drive
What's happenin'?
Got Britney, got Miley, got Kirsten
Can't catch him
Running red lights he ain't tryna get busted
Cut the phone, you gotta go
Seeing blue li-li-li-light, li-li-li-li-lights
I don't think you wanna know
You ain't 'bout that li-li-li-life, li-li-li-li-life
[Chorus]
Oh! Mes amis on ne choisit pas son destin
Les jours sе ressemblent mais nе sont pas les mêmes
Les doigts de la main ne sont pas tous égaux
Dans ce monde, on est complémentaire
En Afrique, il y a la canicule
Il y a le soleil, il y a la chaleur humaine
Il y a le soleil, il y a la joie de vivre
Il y a le soleil, on est tous ensemble
[Post-Chorus 1]
I’m goin’ up and down
And baby round and round
Africa! Africa! Africa!
Solidarité
Africa! Africa! Africa!
C'est la joie de vivre
Tell ’em again
Here we go
Il y a des pays où c'est la neige
Il y a des pays où, c'est la canicule
Il y a des pays où, c'est les tempêtes
Il y a des pays où, c'est des îles
Dans ce monde, on est complémentaire
It’s just a jealousy
Everything for you and me
You ready? Here we go
[Post-Chorus 2]
E man'i den ta (kunfɛko)
E man'i den ta (kunfɛko)
K'a bila karan na n ba (kunfɛko)
Moridenkaran na (kunfɛko)
A de lɔnni kɛ wa? (Kunfɛko)
A tɛ lɔnni kɛ? (Kunfɛko)
O faralen Ala la! (Kunfɛko)
[Verse 2]
I got my feet, I’m jumping high off the wall
I got my heart, I ain't afraid of the fall
I got my duffel bag that daddy packed for me
I got my ear so I hear when you call
I don’t need eyes just to see you look good
You always did, but they misunderstood
I’m goin’ up and down
And baby round and round
I wanna touch you down the river below
And then I’ll kiss you from your head to your toe
You take me so high up, and then you let me down
[Pre-Chorus]
Africa! Africa! Africa!
Solidarité
Africa! Africa! Africa!
C'est la joie de vivre
[Chorus]
En Afrique, il n'y a pas que la guerre
En Afrique, il n'y a pas que la famine
En Afrique, il y a la solidarité
Il y a les parents, il y a aussi les frères
Il y a les soeurs, il y a aussi les cousins
Il y a les amis, il y a aussi la famille
La communauté, on est tous ensemble
En Afrique, il y a la joie de vivre
[Post-Chorus]
Africa! Africa! Africa!
Solidarité
Africa! Africa! Africa!
C'est la joie de vivre
[Post-Chorus 2]
E man'i den ta (kunfɛko)
E man'i den ta (kunfɛko)
K'a bila karan na n ba (kunfɛko)
Moridenkaran na (kunfɛko)
A de lɔnni kɛ wa? (Kunfɛko)
A tɛ lɔnni kɛ? (Kunfɛko)
O faralen Ala la! (Kunfɛko)
