Angela, they put you in prison Angela, they shot down your man Angela, you're one of the millions Of political prisoners in the world
Sister, there's a wind that never dies Sister, we're breathing together Sister, our love and hopes forever Keep on moving, oh, so slowly in the world
They gave you sunshine They gave you sea They gave you everything But the jail house key
They gave you coffee They gave you tea They gave you everything But equality
Angela, can you hear the earth is turning? Angela, the world watches you Angela, you soon will be returning To your sisters and brothers in the world
Sister, you're still a people teacher Sister, your word reaches far Sister, there's a million different races But we all share the same future in the world
They gave you sunshine They gave you sea They gave you everything But the jail house key
They gave you coffee They gave you tea They gave you everything But equality
Angela, they put you in prison Angela, they shot down your man Angela, you're one of the millions Of political prisoners in the world
