Angela, they put you in prison
Angela, they shot down your man
Angela, youre one of the millions
Of political prisoners in the world

Sister, theres a wind that never dies
Sister, were breathing together
Sister, our love and hopes forever
Keep on moving, oh, so slowly round the world

They gave you sunshine
They gave you sea
They gave you evrything but the jailhouse key

They gave you coffee
They gave you tea
They gave you evrything but equality

Angela, can you hear the world is turning
Angela, the world watches you
Angela, you soon will be returning
To your sisters and your brothers of the world

Sister, youre still a people teacher
Sister, your word reaches far
Sister, theres a million diffrent races
But we all share the same future in the world

They gave you sunshine
They gave you sea
They gave you evrything but the jailhouse key

Yeh, they gave you coffee
They gave you tea
They gave you evrything but equality

Hey, angela, they put you in prison
Angela, they shot down your man
Angela, youre one of the millions
Of political prisoners in the world
