Arthur Lee Land Drum & A Chair lyrics

I LEFT MY MIND
UNDER AFRICAN SKIES
I NEVER FELT SO ALIVE

I CROSSED THE SEA
I FELL ON THE LAND
AND WE DANCED IN THE SAND

DRUM & A CHAIR
WOVEN RUG AND NO DOOR
THE WOOD AND DIRT FLOOR

VOICES LIKE PRAYER
WENT STRAIGHT TO MY HEART
A FULL MOON LIT THE DARK

I FEEL YOUR PULSE
SISTER AND BROTHER
MY FATHER MY MOTHER

A WOMAN, A SPADE
A PLOT AND SOME SEEDS
HOW MANY MOUTHS SHE WILL FEED?


RICE ON A LEAF
THE WHOLE VILLAGE IS THERE
WITH SWEET MANGOS TO SHARE

DRUM & A CHAIR
A CIRCLE A SONG
YES, WE ALL BELONG!

VOICES OF PRAYER
WENT STRAIGHT TO MY HEART
AND A FIRE LIT THE DARK

I FEEL YOUR PULSE
SISTER AND BROTHER
MY FATHER MY MOTHER

I FEEL YOUR PULSE
SISTER AND BROTHER
MY FATHER MY MOTHER
