Ziggy Marley Diamond City Lyrics

Sierra Leone, Sierra Leone, yea, Sierra Leone, yea
Well I've seen a crime
To which I can't be blind
Living in a diamond city
With a broken heart

Well I've seen a crime
To which I can't be blind
Living in a diamond city
With a broken heart

Oh diamond city, let me take you there
Well, well, well
There everyday there's a need for revolution
She's like a mother who denies her newborn milk, sweet milk
Lost are the thrills of life as we know them
They one man swim yet many more are drowning

Well I've seen a crime
To which I can't be blind
Living in a diamond city
With a broken heart

Yes, I've seen a crime
To which I can't be blind
Living in a diamond city
With a broken heart

In a diamond city, let me take you there
Well, well, well
Surely we can help each other in this earth
Ain't no need to be greedy or too proud no need Because the color of our skin
They gave us no chance to win, ahh

Well I've seen a crime
To which I can't be blind
Living in a diamond city
With a broken heart

I've seen a crime
To which I can't be blind
Living in a diamond city
With a broken heart
Oh diamond city
With a broken heart

We will fight for our rights
We will fight for Africa
We will fight for our freedom
Did you hear? We will fight for Africa, Africa

I've seen a crime
To which I can't be blind
Living in a diamond city
With a broken heart

Yes, I've seen a crime
Where are the cops this time
Living in a diamond city
With a broken heart
Oh diamond city
With a broken heart

Oh diamond city
Come here let me take you there
Let me take you there
I'll take you there
Let me take you there
Let me take you there
