Richie Havens - African Herbsman lyrics

Old Twinkling Lee Can't see the right roads when the streets are paved The old slave mill, might grind slow But it grinds fine... yeah [Verse 1] African Herbsman, why linger on? Just concentrate cuz heaven lives on Retired slaveman, will look with a scorn With a transplanted heart [Bridge - Bob Marley and the Wailers] [The Wailers] Yes how quick we have to part Yes how quick we have to part [Bob] The remembrance... of today... is the sad feeling of tomorrow... [The Wailers] Yes how quick we have to part [Bob] Oh, oh yeah [Verse 2] African Herbsman, seize your time I'm taking illusion on the edge of my mind I'm taking losers down through my life Down through my life, yeah [Bridge - Bob Marley and the Wailers] [The Wailers] Yes how quick we have to part Yes how quick we have to part [Bob] Did they part? Yes they part! In remembrance of today... [The Wailers] Yes how quick we have to part [Repeat Verse 1] [Bridge - Bob Marley and the Wailers] [The Wailers] Yes how quick we have to part Yes how quick we have to part [Bob] In remembrance, of today, brings sad feelings of tomorrow [The Wailers] Yes how quick we have to part [Bob] Believe me oh, oh lord I praise African Herbsman African Herbsman African, African Herbsman
