Lyrics

400 years (400 years, 400 years. Wo-o-o-o)
 And it's the same
 The same (wo-o-o-o) philosophy
 I've said it's four hundred years
 (400 years, 400 years. Wo-o-o-o, wo-o-o-o)
 Look, how long (wo-o-o-o)
 And the people they (wo-o-o-o) still can't see
 Why do they fight against the poor youth of today?
 And without these youths, they would be gone
 All gone astray
 Come on, let's make a move:
 (make a move, make a move. Wo-o-o-o, wo-o-o-o)
 I can (wo-o-o-o) see time (wo-o-o-o) - time has come,
 And if-a fools don't see
 (fools don't see, fools don't see. Wo-o-o-o)
 I can't save the youth:
 The youth (wo-o-o-o) is gonna be strong
 So, won't you come with me;
 I'll take you to a land of liberty
 Where we can live - live a good, good life
 And be free.
 Look how long: 400 years, (400 years, 400 years)
 Way too long! (wo-o-o-o)
 That's the reason my people (wo-o-o-o) - my people can't see.
 Said, it's four hundred long years - (400 years, 400 years. Wo-o-o-o)
 Give me patience (wo-o-o-o) - same philosophy.
 It's been 400 years, (400 years, 400 years)
 Wait so long! Wo-o-o-o, wo-o-o-o.
 How long? 400 long, long years.
