[F] [Ebm] Oh, Africa,
[Ebm] time to wake up [Ab] from your slumber.
[Ab] Time to get up, stand up for [Ebm] your rights.
[Ab]
As the great spirits [Ebm] of Africa
led our ancestors through time immemorial.
[Eb] And so rise up, because the time is now.
[Ebm]
[Ab] [Ebm] [Bb]
[Ebm]
Africa, Africa, Africa's my people.
Africa's my people africa my continent,
Africa, Africa, Africa,
I'm gonna make you listen to me.
What is happening?
What is going on?

What is going [Bb] on? [Ebm] Yee-haw!
Yidiba!

Why you look blue?

Africa, oh-oh-oh!
Africa is my people!
Africa my continent, oh!

[Eb] [Ebm]
Now listen here.
Most of us black people have been miseducated and have become educated fools.
Letting our culture, which is our strength, to a foreign culture, enslaves our minds.
We need to stop this feeble-minded blame game in politics
and work together for the sake of our children and our nation.
And for us to progress, we need to stop stealing from Mother Ghana
and bring those who steal to justice.
Otherwise, there is no leadership.
[Eb]
That's right, there is no leadership.
We're going to bring those who steal.
Yee-haw!
[Bb] [Ebm] Yee-haw!
[Eb] [Gb]
