[00:12.45] Well Jo'anna she runs a country
[00:17.00] She runs in Durban and the Transvaal
[00:21.22] She makes a few of her people happy, oh
[00:25.04] She don't care about the rest at all
[00:28.98] She's got a system they call apartheid
[00:32.37] It keeps a brother in a subjection
[00:36.00] But maybe pressure can make Jo'anna see
[00:40.03] How everybody could a live as one
[00:43.53] Gimme hope, Jo'anna
[00:46.49] Hope, Jo'anna
[00:47.93] Gimme hope, Jo'anna
[00:49.73] 'Fore the morning come
[00:51.53] Gimme hope, Jo'anna
[00:53.83] Hope, Jo'anna
[00:55.93] Hope before the morning come
[00:58.93] I hear she make all the golden money
[01:01.83] To buy new weapons, any shape of guns
[01:06.03] While every mother in black Soweto fears
[01:10.03] The killing of another son
[01:13.33] Sneakin' across all the neighbors' borders
[01:16.63] Now and again having little fun
[01:20.83] She doesn't care if the fun and games she play
[01:25.03] Is dangerous to everyone
[01:28.93] Gimme hope, Jo'anna
[01:31.33] Hope, Jo'anna
[01:32.83] Gimme hope, Jo'anna
[01:34.63] 'Fore the morning come
[01:36.43] Gimme hope, Jo'anna
[01:38.53] Hope, Jo'anna
[01:40.53] Hope before the morning come
[01:58.02] She's got supporters in high up places
[02:01.62] Who turn their heads to the city sun
[02:05.82] Jo'anna give them the fancy money
[02:08.82] Oh to tempt anyone who'd come
[02:13.32] She even knows how to swing opinion
[02:16.62] In every magazine and the journals
[02:20.72] For every bad move that this Jo'anna makes
[02:24.32] They got a good explanation
[02:28.52] Gimme hope, Jo'anna
[02:30.92] Hope, Jo'anna
[02:32.62] Gimme hope, Jo'anna
[02:34.32] 'Fore the morning come
[02:36.12] Gimme hope, Jo'anna
[02:38.22] Hope, Jo'anna
[02:40.02] Hope before the morning come
[02:58.12] Even the preacher who works for Jesus
[03:01.62] The Archbishop who's a peaceful man
[03:06.12] Together say that the freedom fighters
[03:09.42] Will overcome the very strong
[03:13.02] I want to know if you're blind Jo'anna
[03:16.42] If you want to hear the sound of drums
[03:20.92] Can't you see that the tide is turning
[03:23.85] Oh don't make me wait till the morning come
[03:28.22] Gimme hope, Jo'anna
[03:30.32] Hope, Jo'anna
[03:31.82] Gimme hope, Jo'anna
[03:33.62] 'Fore the morning come
[03:35.72] Gimme hope, Jo'anna
[03:37.82] Hope, Jo'anna
[03:39.57] Hope before the morning come
[03:43.02] Gimme hope, Jo'anna
[03:45.82] Hope, Jo'anna
[03:47.62] Gimme hope, Jo'anna
[03:49.12] 'Fore the morning come
[03:50.62] Gimme hope, Jo'anna
[03:52.72] Hope, Jo'anna
[03:54.52] Hope before the morning come
