E-lo

And there's nowhere I'd rather be (Rather be)
When they take with the one hand
And take with the other
On the day all the hands go free (Hands go free)
Then the sun's gonna shine
The sun's gonna shine on me

O-lo
E-o-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
And all the people go
O-lo
E-o-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo

Mama Maria, she would take my hand (Take my hand)
Down to el Rio Sol
Saying: oye for real, hijo, understand (Understand)
Hands can hurt or heal, so

Tell all the people go
O-lo
E-o-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
And all the people go
O-lo
E-o-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
All the people go
O-lo
E-o-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
And all the people go
O-lo
E-o-free hands go

Mama Miriam, she would take my hand
Down to the rio and flow
Baxabana ogxam baxabana ngenoxoxo
Bexakwe yinxuba xaka

Tell all the people go
O-lo
E-o-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
All the people go
O-lo
E-o-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
Tell all the people go
O-lo
E-o-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
And all the people go
O-lo
E-o-free hands go

There's nowhere I'd rather be (Rather be)
Gonna raise up the one hand
And raise up the other
Hurt me outside, Inside I'm free (Inside I'm free)
And there's no enemy
Everyone is my brother
When the truth comes to set me free (Set me free)
And we're not going to fall
In and out with each other
On the day all the hands go free (Hands go free)
Then the sun's gonna shine
The sun's gonna shine on me

Tell all the people go
O-lo
E-o-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
And all the people go
O-lo
E-o-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo

And the sun's gonna shine on me
And I know
One day I know
The sun's gonna shine on me

Let my hands go free
Let my hands go free
Let my hands go free
The sun's gonna shine on me

Let my hands go free
And all hands go free
When all hands go free
The sun's gonna shine on me
