Shadow men from the outlands come to town
Looking for Bafazane
They want to gun him down, oh no
They say he thunders too loud and his people are proud
And they'll never give in while he's still around
And it's the sky above that he loves

They've got bullets for Bafazane, they want to gun him down
They've got bullets for Bafazane, oh they're searching the town
They've got bullets for Bafazane, and the word's got around
They've got bullets for Bafazane

Eyes wide open in the backroom
Finger on the trigger
Listening for any sound that will
Betray the silent deadly figure
He's got iron in his soul
He's got a smile in his eyes
He makes dancing shoes from old car tires
And it's the sky up above that he loves

They've got bullets for Bafazane, they want to gun him down
They've got bullets for Bafazane, oh they're searching the town
They've got bullets for Bafazane, and the word's got around
They've got bullets for Bafazane

It's the sky up above that he loves
'Cause he's alive and for him that's enough
It's the sky up above that he loves
'Cause he's still alive and for him that's enough

They've got bullets for Bafazane, they want to gun him down
They've got bullets for Bafazane, oh they're searching the town
They've got bullets for Bafazane, and the word's got around
They've got bullets for Bafazane

They've got bullets
They've got bullets
They've got bullets

Get me, get me, I know they're coming here to ( They've got bullets )
Get me, get me, I don't want you to come here  ( They've got bullets )
Get me, get me, mama mama they going to ( They've got bullets )
Get me, get me ( They've got bullets )
Get me, get me, ( They've got bullets )
Get me, get me, I know they're coming here to ( They've got bullets )
Get me, get me ( They've got bullets )
Get me, get me ( They've got bullets )
Oh they going to get me ( They've got bullets )
You're not going to get me ( They've got bullets )
Get me, get me, get me, get me ( They've got bullets )
They're coming here to get me ( They've got bullets )
