(Spoken over Above Chords):
Way down in Africa, where the backra still rules,
Day after day the Black Man is suffering now,
Far more than when he was a slave.
Is there a need for war? No.
Peace my bredren; here them bawl.
Bodies in mutilated condition,
Faces scarred beyond recognition.
Is this what Civilization means to me?
Then without it, I prefer to be, so...

Give I back I witch doctor,
Bm F#m
Give I back I Black Ruler.
