[Verse 1]
Hang onto the world as it spins around
Just don't let the spin get you down, oh no
Things are moving fast
Hold on tight and you will last

Keep your self-respect, your manly pride
Get yourself in gear
Keep your stride, yeah
Never mind your fears, never mind
Brighter days will soon be here

[Chorus]
Just wait and see
Someday we'll all be free
Yeah

[Harmonica solo]

[Verse 2]
Keep on walking tall
Hold you head up high
Lay your dreams right up to the sky
Sing your greatest song, your greatest song
And you'll keep going, you'll keep going on
[Chorus]
Take it from me
Someday we'll all be free

[Outro]
Yeah, and it won't be long
Take it from me
Someday we'll all be free, yeah
Take it from me, someday we'll see
We'll all be free, oh yeah
Take it from me, someday we'll see
South Africa
Take it from me, someday we'll see
Take it from me, someday we'll see
Take it from me, take it from me, take it from me
