She runs in Durban and the Transvaal<br />
She makes a few of her people happy, oh<br />
She don't care about the rest at all<br />
She's got a system they call apartheid<br />
It keeps a brother in a subjection<br />
But maybe pressure will make Jo'anna see<br />
How everybody could a live as one<br />
<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
Hope, Jo'anna<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
'Fore the morning come<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
Hope, Jo'anna<br />
Hope before the morning come<br />
<br />
I hear she makes all the golden money<br />
To buy new weapons, any shape of guns<br />
While every mother in black Soweto fears<br />
The killing of another son<br />
Sneakin' across all the neighbours' borders<br />
Now and again having little fun<br />
She doesn't care if the fun and games she play<br />
Is dang'rous to ev'ryone<br />
<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
'Fore the morning come<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
Hope before the morning come<br />
<br />
She got supporters in high up places<br />
Who turn their heads to the city sun<br />
Jo'anna give them the fancy money<br />
Oh to tempt anyone who'd come<br />
She even knows how to swing opinion<br />
In every magazine and the journals<br />
For every bad move that this Jo'anna makes<br />
They got a good explanation<br />
<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
'Fore the morning come<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
Hope before the morning come<br />
<br />
Even the preacher who works for Jesus<br />
The Archbishop who's a peaceful man<br />
Together say that the freedom fighters<br />
Will overcome the very strong<br />
I wanna know if you're blind Jo'anna<br />
If you wanna hear the sound of drum<br />
Can't you see that the tide is turning<br />
Oh don't make me wait till the morning come<br />
<br />
Do give hope, Jo'anna<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
'Fore the morning come<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
Hope before the morning come<br />
<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
'Fore the morning come<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
Gimme hope, Jo'anna<br />
Hope before the morning come<br />
