Songtexte African Child - The Heptones

One, two

African child, that's what I am (African child)
That's what I am

I was born right here, Jamaica
My mother was born in an island
My daddy was born in Africa
So what kind of child am I?

African child, that's what I am
African, African

My daddy was an enslaved in an island
And only one occasion, he met this woman
And she was held there as a servant
So what kind of child am I?

Yes, I'm an African child, I know
Tell them what I am, that's what I am
African child
African child, that's what I am

My daddy was an enslaved in an island
And only one occasion, he met this woman
And she was held there as a servant
So what kind of child am I?

Yes, I'm an African child, that's what I am
And I know, African
African child
