Soldier
(Lucky Dube)
Stand for the truth you stand alone
government will cover up
i saw a man sitting in a room
holding a gun to his head
he said man oh man
what am I gonna do
I can't change the past but I can change the future
If I pull this trigger right now, right here
everything will be overf
not a day goes by I don't see them in my dreams
not a day goes by I don't hear them screaming in my ears
begging for mercy, pleading innocent
since my heart is made up to be as cold
as the barrel of this gun I hold
I would pull the trigger anyway
CHORUS
I was a soldier, following instructions from a man
we have known as the general
so many medals, so many praises
nothing can take away the guilt
that I feel inside me
Government covered up every crime we committed
against human kind
not a day goes by, I don't see them in my dreams
not a day goes by, I don't hear them crying in my ears
Julie! Julie!
I heard of this guy
He lives up on the mountain
they say he mixes herbs
throws the bones, tells the future
I'm on my way right now
I wanna know about my future
with a girl named Julie
CHORUS
Julie Julie Julie oh Girl (x2)
Road is hard getting up there
but they say where there's love
there'll always be a way
so Im gonna huff and puff make my way to the mountain
cause I wanna know my future with a girl named Julie
CHORUS
Julie Julie Julie oh Girl (x2)
Some people call him a witch doctor
but how can he be a witch and a doctor at the same time
if she's not the right one for me
I better stop dreaming about her
I'm on my way right now
I wanna know my future with a girl named Julie
