Now Could we go to the square they call Congo
|
I need to go and lay my feet upon the stone
|
Where the first of us stood before, before, before
|
Where we sat and played to revive our depleteted souls
|
Where we went to forget out freedom was not our own
|
Where we went to hold onto the memory of way back home
|
|
Now could we
|
Now could we
|
Now could we go
|
|
Get to cong, get to cong congo
|
Get to Cong, get to Congo
|
[Repeat]
|
|
Now Could we go to the square they call Congo
|
I need to go and lay my feet upon the stone
|
Where the first of us stood before, before, before
|
Where we made music in remembrance of human bodies sold
|
Where the sound of old pain became a new music of hoped
|
Where they paved me a road so i could get to Congo
|
|
Now could we
|
Now could we
|
Now could we go
|
|
Get to cong, get to cong congo
|
Get to Cong, get to Congo
|
[Repeat]
|
|
And i would not be here today if they had not been So displaced, so displaced
|
But still
|
But still they made time to sing and play a song
|
A song in Congo
|
|
Get to cong, get to cong congo
|
Get to Cong, get to Congo
|
[Repeat until end of song]
