lyrics

Wowowo,

This is Black Mother

Oh Zion I,

Wowowo

Just singing about them

Give them the appreciation

In this life



See those women carrying, dem little children
And on their back dem holding,

Working tools
Tell you builders of the families are the builders of the nation
If each family is moral and great
Then every nation is so great

But some fool when they see these women

They think that it's their duty to carry

The heavy family burden

To wake up early in the morning

Forsake their nightly comforts
Task themselves with daily chores

And never wearing in their applications
Don't mind these ingrate-ite fools…



Wowowo

Wowowo

Talking of black women

Giving them appreciation



Come down come down

Come down come down

Come down come down

Come down come down

Black Zion Black Zion

Black Zion Black Zion

Black Zion Black Zion

Black Zion Black Zion

Come down come down

Every day when you come around

Come down come down

Come down come down

Can't wait till when she gets old

Then I'll sing to her lullabies

That she sang to me when I was young

Can't wait till when she gets old

Then I'll sing to her lullabies

That she sang to me when I was young

And when I get sick

She is my foundational brick



Oh mama oh mama

Oh mama oh mama





Come down come down

Come down come down

Come down come down

Come down come down

Black Zion Black Zion

Black Zion Black Zion

Black Zion Black Zion

Black Zion Black Zion

Come down come down

Every day when you come around

Come down come down

Come down come down



Oh yeah yeah



Builders of the nation

Are the builders of the family
If each family is moral and great
Then the whole nation is so great



Black Zion Black Zion

This is the experience they try not to provide but "unfortunately," out of their numerous times on stage, they've failed not to. Their joyous sounds are carriages to tangible euphoria that last for eternity. ... more
