Gimme Hope Jo’anna

Gimme Hope Jo Anna - Pat Benesta[00:00:00]

Well Jo'anna she runs a country[00:00:15]

She runs in Durban and the Transvaal[00:00:18]

She makes a few of her people happy oh[00:00:22]

She don't care about the rest at all[00:00:26]

She's got a system they call apartheid[00:00:30]

And keeps a brother in a subjection[00:00:33]

But maybe pressure will make Jo'anna see[00:00:37]

How everybody could a live as one oh[00:00:41]

Gimme hope Jo'anna[00:00:44]

Hope Jo'anna[00:00:47]

Gimme hope Jo'anna[00:00:48]

'Fore the morning come[00:00:50]

Gimme hope Jo'anna[00:00:52]

Hope Jo'anna[00:00:54]

Gimme hope before the morning come[00:00:56]

I hear she make all the golden money[00:00:59]

To buy new weapons any shape of guns[00:01:03]

While every mother in black Soweto fears[00:01:07]

The killing of another son[00:01:10]

Sneakin' across all the neighbors' borders[00:01:14]

Now and again having little fun[00:01:17]

She doesn't care if the fun and games she play[00:01:21]

Is dang'rous to ev'ryone oh[00:01:25]

Gimme hope Jo'anna[00:01:29]

Hope Jo'anna[00:01:32]

Gimme hope Jo'anna[00:01:33]

'Fore the morning come[00:01:35]

Gimme hope Jo'anna[00:01:36]

Hope Jo'anna[00:01:39]

Gimme hope before the morning come[00:01:40]

She's got supporters in high up places[00:01:58]

Who turn their heads to the city sun[00:02:02]

Jo'anna give them the fancy money[00:02:06]

Oh to tempt anyone who'd come[00:02:09]

She even knows how to swing opinion[00:02:13]

In every magazine and the journals[00:02:17]

For every bad move that this Jo'anna makes[00:02:21]

They got a good explanation[00:02:25]

Oh gimme hope Jo'anna[00:02:28]

Hope Jo'anna[00:02:31]

Gimme hope Jo'anna[00:02:32]

'Til the morning come[00:02:34]

Gimme hope Jo'anna[00:02:36]

Hope Jo'anna[00:02:38]

Gimme hope before the morning come[00:02:39]

Even the preacher who works for Jesus[00:02:43]

The Archbishop who's a peaceful man[00:02:47]

Together say that the freedom fighters[00:02:50]

Will overcome the very strong[00:02:53]

I want to know if you're blind Jo'anna[00:02:58]

If you want to hear the sound of drums[00:03:01]

Can't you see that the tide is turning[00:03:05]

Oh don't let me wait till the morning come[00:03:08]

Oh gimme hope Jo'anna[00:03:12]

Hope Jo'anna[00:03:15]

Gimme hope Jo'anna[00:03:16]

'Til the morning come[00:03:18]

Gimme hope Jo'anna[00:03:20]

Hope Jo'anna[00:03:23]

Gimme hope before the morning come[00:03:24]

Oh gimme hope Jo'anna[00:03:26]

Hope Jo'anna[00:03:30]

Gimme hope Jo'anna[00:03:31]

'Til the morning come[00:03:33]

Gimme hope Jo'anna[00:03:35]

Hope Jo'anna[00:03:38]

Gimme hope before the morning come[00:03:39]
