Well Jo'anna she runs a country She runs in Durban and the Transvaal She makes a few of her people happy, oh She don't care about the rest at allShe's got a system they call apartheid It keeps a brother in a subjection But maybe pressure will make Jo'anna see How everybody could a live as oneOh gimme hope Jo'anna, hope Jo'anna Gimme hope, Jo'anna 'fore the morning come Gimme hope Jo'anna, hope Jo'anna Hope before the morning comeI hear she makes all the golden money To buy new weapons, any shape of guns While every mother in a black Soweto fears The killing of another sonSneakin' across all the neighbors' borders Now and again having little fun She doesn't care if the fun and games she play Is dangerous to everyoneOh gimme hope Jo'anna, gimme hope Jo'anna Gimme hope, Jo'anna 'fore the morning come Gimme hope Jo'anna gimme hope Jo'anna Hope before the morning comeShe's got supporters in high up places Who turn their heads to the city sun Jo'anna give them the fancy money Oh to tempt anyone who'd comeShe even knows how to swing opinion In every magazine and the journals For every bad move that this Jo'anna makes They got a good explanationOh gimme hope Jo'anna, gimme hope Jo'anna Gimme hope, Jo'anna 'fore the morning come Gimme hope Jo'anna gimme hope Jo'anna Hope before the morning comeEven the preacher who works for Jesus The Archbishop who's a peaceful man Together say that the freedom fighters Will overcome the very strongI wanna know if you're blind Jo'anna If you wanna hear the sound of drums Can't you see that the tide is turning Oh don't make me wait till the morning comeOh don't gimme hope Jo'anna, gimme hope Jo'anna Gimme hope, Jo'anna 'fore the morning come Gimme hope Jo'anna gimme hope Jo'anna Hope before the morning comeGimme hope Jo'anna, gimme hope Jo'anna Gimme hope, Jo'anna 'fore the morning come Gimme hope Jo'anna gimme hope Jo'anna Hope before the morning come
