Lyrics of Scatterlings Of Africa by Johnny Clegg
verse
Copper sun sinking low
Scatterlings and fugitives
Hooded eyes and weary brows
Seek refuge in the night
chorus
They are the scatterlings of Africa
Each uprooted one
On the road to Phelamanga
Where the world began
chorus
I love the scatterlings of Africa
Each and every one
In their hearts a burning hunger
Beneath the copper sun
verse
Ancient bones from Olduvai
Echoes of the very first cry
"Who made me here and why
Beneath the copper sun?"
verse
African idea
African idea
Make the future clear
Make the future clear
bridge
And we are the scatterlings of Africa
Both you and I
We are on the road to Phelamanga
Beneath a copper sky
And we are the scatterlings of Africa
On a journey to the stars
Far below, we leave forever
Dreams of what we were
chorus
We are the scatterlings of Africa
We are the scatterlings of Africa
We are the scatterlings of Africa
We are the scatterlings of Africa
outro
Scatterlings of Africa
