Johnny Clegg and Savuka - Dance Across The Centuries lyrics

It's a world of "hang on to what you've got" It's a world of "do or die" I know you never take it serious And you keep your head up high I know you'd like to speak to the manager Oh baby, so would i I never made this crazy world anyway I never made this one way ride Chorus For some life offers nothing more Than a struggle or a war A magnum hidden in your drawer You walk away... you want to Dance across the centuries Dance across the sea of time Dance a living memory oh Dance you want to let your spirit shine Every dog wants to be a fat cat Every mouse to be a dog It's not easy, i can tell you Trying to see through the fog Funny how some of us live it up While others just survive I know you do what you can But all you ever do is time Chorus Yaguka 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 pa** and change) Chorus
