[ti:Under African Skies] [ar:Paul Simon] [al:The Paul Simon Anthology CD2] [by:季风网-【http://www.ip21.cn】] [offset:0] Joseph's face was black as night the pale yellow moon shone in his eyes His path was marked by the stars in the southern hemisphere And he walked his days under African skies This is the story of how we begin to remember This is the powerful pulsing of love in the veins After the dream of falling and calling your name out These are the roots of rythm and the roots of rythm and rain In early memory mission music was ringing around my nursury door I said take this child Lord from Tucson Arizona Give her the wings to fly from harm And she won't bother you no more This is the story of how we begin to remember This is the powerful pulsing of love in the veins After the dream of falling and calling your name out These are the roots of rythm and the roots of rythm and rain Chant-like duet with harmony: A-oom-ba-oom-ba-oom-ba-Oooooooooooooh Josephs face was as black as the night And the pale yellow moon shone in his eyes His path was marked by the stars in the southern hemisphere And he walked the length of his days under African skies
