Lyrics South African Enlistment - The Abyssinians

South African Enlistment

I’m coming, I’m coming
Hold on, it’s really true, I’m coming
I’m coming, yes I’m coming
Please hold on, believe you me 'cause I’m coming
I’m coming down the mountain track
I’m coming down real slow
In the distant I can hear a mighty whistle blow
And it’s calling out, it’s calling out, it’s calling out to me
Our forefathers were driven here
And forced in chains and pain
To work the fields in boiling sun
In boiling sun and rain
They were whipped and kicked
They’ve all been tricked
And now we see the same
And I’m coming, I’m coming home
Coming, coming, yes, I’m coming home
They took our land, they stoled our gold
From the south of Africa
Enslaved the bold, controlled their souls
Evil people in this Iwah
So we’ve got to sight
The things that’s right
And get up now and fight
And I’m coming, I’m coming home
Coming, coming, yes, I’m coming home
I’m coming, where is I to go?
Coming, coming, coming, come coming home
I’m coming, Africa is our home
