I feel sorry for the people, way over in Angola today

I feel sorry for the people whooo, way over in Angola today

Cause there's millions of people, ain't got no place to stay



Everybody want their country, they wanna take everything away

Everybody want their country, they wanna take everything away

Because the poor Angolan people, didn't have no help no way



Three hundred years, Angolan people has been a slave

Three hundred years whooo, Angolan people has been a slave

Nobody worryin', nobody helpin' no way



Soon as they got independent, people wanna take the land away

Soon as the Angolan got their independence, those dirty people wanna take it away

They don't wanna see you happy, they don't wanna see you have your way



Well I don't know why, people wanna live that way

I don't know why, people wanna live that way

Cause people wanna have a country, and somebody wanna take it away



Russia and Cuba walked in, say I'll give you a helpin' hand

Russia and Cuba walked in, say people let me give you a hand

Cause we done got tired, people takin' away your land



Rhodesia and South Africa, one day gonna see the same

One day Rhodesia and South Africa, they both gonna see the same

They will understand, be able to shake hand with a black man
