Bedouin Soundclash Gyasi Went Home song lyrics

Where do you come from?

You come from anywhere

You come from country where, water falls free to the sea

I heard the English said

You got the best of it

When Raleigh washed up and found solid gold in his hands

There was a woman, who gave all her pearls

The ocean rolling, rolled them from the new world

And in the morning, rebel you call

But you know…he's only breaking the law

There was a hill coolie, and a transatlantic slave

There came a day when they broke free of their chains

Now in country tempers run hot like Caribbean sun

And the water flows, Gyasi when he went home

There was a woman, who gave all her pearls

The ocean rolling, rolled them from the new world

And in the morning, rebel you call

But you know…he's only breaking the law

There was a woman, who gave all her pearls

The ocean rolling, rolled them from the new world

And in the morning, rebel you call

But you know…he's only breaking the law
