Get Up Stand Up

Woah, yeah, a yeah

Get up, stand up for your rights
Get up, stand up and live
Get up, stand up for your rights, I say
Get up, stand up and live, you see

Stop your grumbling 'bout your suffering
When you have a one who's not pulling on your string
South Africa, your boat going to turn over
President Botha, your pot going to kick over
South Africa, your boat going to turn over
President Botha, your pot going to kick over

There's a system down there in South Africa
That's causing the black man to suffer
When the whites control the resources, capitalize on land
Only the white man can fulfill his plan
But no matter what you build down there, we goin' break it down
Yes, no matter what you put down there, we goin' break it down
But first

We have fi get up, stand up for we rights
Get up, stand up and live
Get up, stand up for we rights
We must get up, stand up and live

We goin' stop the right if a no black man right
We nah give up 'til we win this fight
We goin' stop the right if a no black man right
We nah give up 'til we win this fight
South Africa, Africa, Africa
Your boat going to turn over (Hey)
President Botha, Botha man
Your pot going to kick over
South Africa
