Africa Is the Black Man’s Home

[Hook]
Free the African people
Free the African continent
Free the African people
Free the African continent

[Bridge]
Africa.. is the black man's home
Africa.. where we come from

[Verse 1]
We were captured, oh were captured
And put on ships, oh yes
And we suffered, oh Lord, we suffered
The slashes of the whip, oh yes
I wanna know, I wanna know
When we're going back home
We got to go to Africa, yeah

[Bridge]
Africa.. is the black man's home
Africa.. where we come from

[Verse 2]
All the pains, all the pains
That black man had to bear
(Sufferation) oh yeah (tribulation)
How they suffered, oh Lord they suffer
Right through these years, up to now
I wanna know, I wanna know
When we're going back home, oh yes

[Bridge]
Oh, Africa.. which is the black man's home, yes
Africa.. oh Lord, where we come from
This why I say

[Hook]

[Verse 3]
All the pains, all the pains
That black man had to bear
(Sufferation) had to bear (tribulation)
How they suffered, how they suffered
Right through these years, oh yeah
I wanna know (I want to tell you) I wanna know
When we're going, we're going back home
Mm, Lord, yeah - oh yes

[Outro]
To Africa.. where we come from
Got to go there, got to go there
