Johnny Clegg & Savuka - Dance Across The Centuries Lyrics
Its a world of hang on to what youve gotIts a world of do or dieI know you never take it seriousAnd you keep your head up highI know youd like to speak to the managerOh baby, so would iI never made this crazy world anywayI never made this one way rideChorusFor some life offers nothing moreThan a struggle or a warA magnum hidden in your drawerYou walk away... you want toDance across the centuriesDance across the sea of timeDance a living memory ohDance you want to let your spirit shineEvery dog wants to be a fat catEvery mouse to be a dogIts not easy, I can tell youTrying to see through the fogFunny how some of us live it upWhile others just surviveI know you do what you canBut all you ever do is timeChorusYaguka lenkunzi emnyama(the black bull has grown old)Kade ihlaba ithetha amalala(long and well it has fought and argued)Yaguka lenkunzi emnyama(the black bull has grown old)Guka sithembe kade wawudlelwa(my gating mat grows old, well has it served me)(all things must pass and change)Chorus
