    African
    Song by Peter Tosh

    Don’t care where you come from
    As long as you’re a black man
    You’re an African
    No mind your nationality
    You have got the identity of an African

    'Cause if you come from Clarendon
    And if you come from Portland
    And if you come from Westmoreland
    You’re an African

    No mind your nationality
    You’ve got the identity of an African

    'Cause if you come Trinidad
    And if you come from Nassau
    And if you come from Cuba
    You’re an African

    No mind your complexion
    There is no rejection
    You’re an African

    'Cause if your plexion
    High If your complexion low, low, low
    And if your plexion in between
    You’re an African

    No mind denomination
    That is only segregation
    You’re an African

    Cause if you go to the Catholic
    And if you go to the Methodist
    And if you go to the Church of Gods
    You’re an African

    No mind your nationality
    You have got the identity of an African

    'Cause if you come from Brixton
    And if you come from Weesday
    And if you come from Wingstead
    And if you come from France
