African Lyrics

Peter Tosh

Don't care where you come from,
As long as you're a black man:
You're an African.

No mind your nationality,
You have got the identity of an African.

'Cause if you come from Clarendon;
And if you come from Portland;
And if you come from Westmoreland:
You're an African.

So don't care where you come from,
As long as you're a black man:
You're an African.

No mind your nationality,
You have got the identity of an African.

'Cause if you come Trinidad;
And if you come from Nassau;
And if you come from Cuba;
You're an African.

So don't care where you come from,
As long as you're a black man:
You're an African.

No mind your complexion,
There is no rejection:
You're an African.

'Cause if your plexion,
High, high, high, high,
If your complexion low, low, low,
And if your plexion in between:
You're an African.

So don't care where you come from,
As long as you're a black man:
You're an African.

No mind denomination,
That is only segregation:
You're an African.

'Cause if you go to the Catholic;
And if you go to the Methodist;
And if you go to the Church of Gods:
You're an African.

So don't care where you come from,
As long as you're a black man:
You're an African.

No mind your nationality,
You have got the identity of an African.

'Cause if you come from Brixton
(you're an African)
And if you come from Weesday
(you're an African)
And if you come from Wingstead
(you're an African)
And if you come from France
(you're an African)
And if you come from Brooklyn
(you're an African)
And if you come from Queens
(you're an African)
And if you come from Manhattan
(you're an African)
And if you come from Canada
(you're an African)
And if you come from Miami
(you're an African)
And if you come from Switzerland
(you're an African)
And if you come from Germany
(you're an African)
And if you come from Russia
(you're an African)
And if you come from Taiwan
(you're an African)
