《Lagos Slums》歌词

[00:00:00] Lagos Slums - Brazzaville

[00:00:23] He's had bicycles and sons

[00:00:29] He's had salted fish and dark rum

[00:00:35] Now his days are almost done

[00:00:39] In the Lagos slums

[00:00:47] Was a farmer for a while

[00:00:53] Growing plantains by the coastline

[00:00:58] And some said he had a smile

[00:01:03] Like a movie star

[00:01:10] La ah La ah ah ah

[00:01:22] La ah La ah ah ah

[00:01:34] Met his wife one Friday night

[00:01:40] At a dance hall near the train tracks

[00:01:46] And his heart soared like a kite

[00:01:50] In the evening light

[00:01:57] Worked the oil fields once

[00:02:03] Saved some money for his family

[00:02:09] Built a house near Eden's Point

[00:02:14] Where they raised their boys

[00:02:21] La ah La ah ah ah

[00:02:33] La ah La ah ah ah

[00:02:45] Says it's hard to be a man

[00:02:51] Works and still can't feed his children

[00:02:56] But he does the best he can

[00:03:01] In the New World Plan

[00:03:09] We're all forgotten

[00:03:20] This road leads nowhere

[00:03:32] We're all forgotten

[00:03:44] This road leads nowhere
