Afro Beat Blues

[Verse 1]
Coming from the Congo
Moving to Mombasa
Eyes on Zanzibar
Sail across the ocean
Stopped in Carolina
Down to New Orleans
Shipped me back to Georgia
Working on the chain gang

[Hook]
I got the Afrobeat Blues
I got the Afrobeat Blues
I got the Afrobeat Blues
I got the Afrobeat Blues

[Verse 2]
Coming from Nigeria
Down to Conakry
Sail across the oceans
London and Virginia
Working on the chain gang
Working on the road gang
Working in the kitchen
Picking cotton all day

[Hook]
I got the Afrobeat Blues
I got the Afrobeat Blues
I got the Afrobeat Blues
I got the Afrobeat Blues
I got the Afrobeat Blues
I got the Afrobeat Blues
I got the Afrobeat Blues
