[00:13.470]I slept through the Nineteen Sixties I heard Dory Previn say
[00:21.780]But me I caught me the great white bird to the shores of Africay
[00:31.740]Where I lost my adolescent heart to the sound of a talking drum
[00:40.140]Yeah East of Woodstock West of Vietnam
[00:48.030]And on the roads outside Oshogbo Lord I fell down on my knees
[00:56.340]There were female spirits in old mud huts iron bells ringing up in the trees
[01:06.930]And an eighty year old white priest she made juju all night long
[01:15.270]Yeah East of Woodstock West of Vietnam
[01:22.440]Raise high the roof beams carpenter boy yeah we're coming through the rye
[01:31.950]In the cinema I saw the man on the moon I laughed so hard I cried
[01:42.300]It was somewhere in those rainy seasons that I learned to carve my song
[01:50.700]Yeah East of Woodstock West of Vietnam
[02:07.380]Oh Africa Mother Africa you lay heavy on my breast
[02:15.510]You old cradle of civilization heart of darkness blood and death
[02:25.890]Though we had to play you running scared when the crocodile ate the sun
[02:34.230]Yeah East of Woodstock West of Vietnam
[02:42.450]Well I think it's going to rain tonight I can smell it coming off the sea
[02:51.000]As I sit here reading old Graham Greene I taste Africa on every page
[03:01.320]Then I close my eyes and see those red clay roads and it's sundown and boys I'm gone
[03:09.720]Yeah East of Woodstock West of Vietnam
[03:16.860]Raise high the roof beams carpenter boy yeah we're coming through the rye
[03:26.100]It was a moveable feast of war and memory a dark old lullaby
[03:36.510]It was the smoke of a thousand camp fires it was the wrong end of a gun
[03:45.210]Yeah East of Woodstock West of Vietnam
[03:51.330]Yeah East of Woodstock West of Vietnam

I slept through the Nineteen Sixties I heard Dory Previn say
But me I caught me the great white bird to the shores of Africay
Where I lost my adolescent heart to the sound of a talking drum
Yeah East of Woodstock West of Vietnam
And on the roads outside Oshogbo Lord I fell down on my knees
There were female spirits in old mud huts iron bells ringing up in the trees
And an eighty year old white priest she made juju all night long
Yeah East of Woodstock West of Vietnam
Raise high the roof beams carpenter boy yeah we're coming through the rye
In the cinema I saw the man on the moon I laughed so hard I cried
It was somewhere in those rainy seasons that I learned to carve my song
Yeah East of Woodstock West of Vietnam
Oh Africa Mother Africa you lay heavy on my breast
You old cradle of civilization heart of darkness blood and death
Though we had to play you running scared when the crocodile ate the sun
Yeah East of Woodstock West of Vietnam
Well I think it's going to rain tonight I can smell it coming off the sea
As I sit here reading old Graham Greene I taste Africa on every page
Then I close my eyes and see those red clay roads and it's sundown and boys I'm gone
Yeah East of Woodstock West of Vietnam
Raise high the roof beams carpenter boy yeah we're coming through the rye
It was a moveable feast of war and memory a dark old lullaby
It was the smoke of a thousand camp fires it was the wrong end of a gun
Yeah East of Woodstock West of Vietnam
Yeah East of Woodstock West of Vietnam
