Johnny Clegg & Savuka

Savuka, occasionally referred to as Johnny Clegg & Savuka, was a multi-racial South African band formed in 1986 by Johnny Clegg after the disbanding of Juluka. Savuka's music blended traditional Zulu musical influences with Celtic music and rock music that had a cross-racial appeal in South Africa. Their lyrics were often bilingual in English and Zulu and they wrote several politically charged songs, particularly related to apartheid. Some better-known Savuka songs include "Asimbonanga", and "Third World Child", from their 1987 album Third World Child. Band percussionist Dudu Zulu was killed in 1992; their song "The Crossing" was a tribute to him. more »

Dogs in the backyard
And the flies are on the wall
Thunder and lightning
But the rain don't ever fall
If there's a flower in this desert
It's your picture on my wall
Ibe dat baby I'm going to make you
Queen of all

Chorus:
This is not a movie
Not a dream
What you see is what you get
This is not a movie
It's for real
You have to face it in the end...
The hard side of love

Don't walk away
Don't walk away --
I need your love
There's nothing on the other side ---
This I say to you
One day I know we will
Free our lives.
One day I know we will
Free our lives
One day I know we'll turn that tide.
Let the wheel turn one more time

Woke up this morning
While you were still asleep
Looked through the window
Into the empty streey
I don't know exactly
What came over me
But now I know baby
I'm going to lay some of this world
At your feet

Chorus....

Some day, some day
Wo! yelele mama!
Yelele mama a ye!
