Alborosie - America Lyrics

America
America

Hey, America come to fire di big gun
I and I see di old church bun dung
America trick we and go always from di truth
And hide Satan behind Jesus suit, well
Stars and stripes, no, is not my salvation
Dem want fi globalize di world wid di Americanization
Uncle Sam bury Johnny inna Vietnam
Dem wan' go bury Johnny again in Afghanistan

America, call back your soldiers
America, move weh from Africa
America, call back your soldiers
America, move weh from Africa

Woii, America marching from Iraq to Botswana
And search fi oil right dung in every corna
America send di apache choppa in Angola
Collect a diamond from Congo straight to Ghana
America, why you turn your back to New Orleans?
You need an humble president inna shorts and tings
You need to wash your dutty clothes dem with your own water
And stop abusing di resources inna Africa

America, call back your soldiers
America, move weh from Africa
America, call back your soldiers
America, move weh from Africa

Oii, me sick and tired of political games
America fire gun inna Jesus name
We sing what we know and what we understand
Cah Rastafari God is a living man
America fool some people sometime
But you can't fool Rasta people at no time
So long time we call fi lightning
America just stop di fighting, well

America, call back your soldiers
America, move weh from Africa
America, call back your soldiers
America, move weh from Africa
