mandela day
It was 25 years they take that man away Now the freedom moves in closer every day Wipe the tears down from your saddened eyes They say Mandela's free so step outside Oh oh oh oh Mandela day Oh oh oh oh Mandela's free It was 25 years ago this very day Held behind four walls all through night and day Still the children know the story of that man And I know what's going on right through your land 25 years ago Na na na na Mandela day Oh oh oh Mandela's free If the tears are flowing wipe them from your face I can feel his heartbeat moving deep inside It was 25 years they took that man away And now the world come down say Nelson Mandela's free Oh oh oh oh Mandela's free The rising suns sets Mandela on his way Its been 25 years around this very day From the one outside to the ones inside we say Oh oh oh oh Mandela's free Oh oh oh set Mandela free Na na na na Mandela day Na na na na Mandela's free 25 years ago What's going on And we know what's going on Cos we know what's going on.
