Theres a girl who lives in the high country
Where the willows do not weep
And the rain falls softly and gently
And does not disturb her sleep
Theres a girl who lives in the high country
Who lives on tea and dreams
And I know that she does not love me
But she plays the game so well
Sit by my side and tell me boy
Is the milky way that far? is the universe really expanding?
Tell me who you are?
I am a bondsman - a poor man
I am a ghettoman - I am a thief
Who saw the gutterman who has no compassion
Who heard the widow who cannot weep
In the backstreets, in the poor towns
I hear a thunder which cannot roll
Mine are the eyes that steal from the orphanage
A groveller, groping in the grime
Inside is a congo-jungle-beast-lion-leopard-man
A tiger-man from timbuktu
Even a lover-man strutting down the avenue
A winding river searching for the sea...
And she said that she understood me
She thought I was complex and sensitive
Here she said, hold my hand,
And have a muffin!
Do you see the clouds boy?
Do you see the ship?
Do you see the duck?
Do you love me?
Brick by brick the empire is crumbling
Stone by stone it cracks and folds
Dreams of phantoms plotting in the jungle
Vengeance in the elephant grass
Someones been at the liquor cabinet
Shes sure someones been wearing her shoes
All around her chaos and anarchy
Light and reason overthrown
Im sure she says, they will attack the embassy,
Take me home, take me home!
Theres a wind that blows through the high country
Where the mansion used to stand
And it blows through the broken down garden
Where she once held my hand.
La, la, la, la...
Savuka, occasionally referred to as Johnny Clegg and Savuka, was a multi-racial South African band formed in 1986 by Johnny Clegg after the disbanding of Juluka. Savuka's music blended traditional Zulu musical influences with Celtic music and rock music that had a cross-racial appeal in South Africa. Their lyrics were often bilingual in English and Zulu and they wrote several politically charged songs, particularly related to apartheid. Some better-known Savuka songs include "Asimbonanga", and "Third World Child", from their 1987 album Third World Child. Band percussionist Dudu Zulu was killed in 1992; their song "The Crossing" was a tribute to him.
