Pretoria

Hey 'eh hey oh
hey 'eh hey oh
hey 'eh hey oh
hey 'eh hey oh

In the streets
of Johannesburg
noone talks
in the dust
of Soweto
you cannot walk
there's a segregated
racial flaw
that the Afrikaners
write in law

But someday
Pretoria
we will see a change
Pretoria
someday
Pretoria
there will be
a different story

Hey 'eh hey oh
hey 'eh hey oh

On the Sharpeville ground
corpses lay
and the mud
was stained
with blood
and hate
then in Pietersburg
just yesterday
there were freedom fighters
on parade

But someday
Pretoria
we will see a change
Pretoria
someday
Pretoria
we will march again
Pretoria

Hey 'eh hey oh
hey 'eh hey oh
hey 'eh hey oh
hey 'eh hey oh

In the jails
and in the mines
in the governmental
firing lines
there is still
a black majority
segregated
never free

But someday
Pretoria
we will write
a different story
someday
Pretoria
we will march again
Pretoria

Hey 'eh hey oh
hey 'eh hey oh

In the streets
of Johannesburg
noone talks
in the alleyways
of Durban
you cannot walk
there's a segregated
racial flaw
that the Afrikaners
write in law

But someday
Pretoria
we will write
a different
story
someday
Pretoria
we will see a change
Pretoria
In the streets
of Johannesburg
noone talks
in the dust
of Soweto
you cannot walk
there's a segregated
racial flaw
that the Afrikaners
write in law
someday
Pretoria
there will be
a different story
someday
Pretoria
we will march again
Pretoria

Hey 'eh hey oh
hey 'eh hey oh
