[Chorus 1: Gil Scott-Heron]
Hey!
Said what’s the word?
Tell me, brother, have you heard?
From Johannesburg?
Tell me, what’s the word now?
Sister, woman, have you heard?
From Johannesburg?
[Verse 1: Gil Scott-Heron]
They tell me that our brothers over there are defying the Man
And we don’t know for sure because the news we get is unreliable, man
Yes, I, I hate it when the blood start flowing
But I’m glad to see resistance growing
[Chorus 1: Gil Scott-Heron]
Somebody tell me what’s the word?
Tell me, brother, have you heard?
About Johannesburg?
Now what’s the word?
Tell me, woman, have you heard?
About Johannesburg?
[Verse 2: Gil Scott-Heron]
They tell me that our brothers over there
Refuse to work in the mines
They may not get the news, but they need to know
We’re on their side
Yeah, now sometimes distance bring misunderstanding
But deep in my heart, I’m demanding
