For Africa, In Africa - Jackie DeShannon

We got to dig a well of clean water

All for our sisters and our brothers

We got to dig a well of clean water

Save our sons and save our daughters

(For Africa, in Africa)

(For Africa, in Africa)

We can make the children healthy

Clean water is not just for the wealthy

Can you hear me, will you listen?

There is no time for indecision

(For Africa, in Africa)

(For Africa, in Africa)

We got to dig a well of clean water

This is the day to get things started

We got to dig a well of clean water

Try to mend the broken-hearted

(For Africa, in Africa)

(For Africa, in Africa)

We got to dig a well of clean water

And take away the face of sorrow

We got to dig a well of clean water

Try to give a new tomorrow

We can help to save a nation

There is no need for reservation

(For Africa, in Africa)

(For Africa, in Africa)

(For Africa, in Africa)

(For Africa, in Africa)

(For Africa, in Africa)

(For Africa, in Africa)

(For Africa, in Africa)

(For Africa, in Africa)

(For Africa)
