All twinklin' lee
Can't see the right rose when the streams abate
The old slave men might grind slow
But it grinds fine yeah
African herbsman why linger on
Just concentrate 'cause heaven lives on
Greet I eth slave men will look with a scorn
With a transplanted heart
Yes how quick they had to part
How quick they had to part
The remembrance of today
Is the sad feelin' of tomorrow
How quick
Oh
Oh yeah
African herbsman seize your time
I'm takin' illusion on the edge of my mind
I'm takin' losers down thru my life
Down thru my life yeah
Yes how quick they had to part
How quick they had to part
Dideh part yes they part
In remembrance of today
How quick they had to part
African herbsman why linger on
Just concentrate 'cause your heaven lives on
Greet I eth slave men will look with a scorn
With a transplanted heart yes how
Quick they
Have to part
How quick they have to part
In remembrance of today
Brings sad feelings of tomorrow
Yes how quick they have to
Lead me on oh Lord
I pray to you
African herbsman
