LYRICS To FATHER HOW LONG?

Tell me, my father,
tell me how long
Will boys keep dying’
…for freedom’s song
Before we find a place to belong
Tell me, my father, how long?

Won’t bow to no man.
I got my pride
This dream I’m dreaming’ can’t be denied. How long till I can sing freedom’s song?
Tell me, my father, how long?

I cry my tears. The same as any man you see. So God, please tell me why. This man ain’t free.

No more this darkness, bring me the light
Show me your morning’ cast off this night
How long till I can sing freedom’s song?

Tell me my father,
Tell me my father
Tell me my father,
How long?
