Johnny Clegg - Work For All Lyrics
Official




[ Featuring Juluka, Sipho Mchunu ]

Keep the home fires burning
While papa's earning the pittance he calls his pay
You've got to get up so early in the morning
To keep your job let alone find one these days

Hear them sing in the streets now
Hear the sound of marching feet now

Sifun'umsebenzi (Work for all), we need to work to be
Sifun'umsebenzi (Work for all), there's a jobless army in the streets
Sifun'umsebenzi (Work for all), in a wage a hidden war
Sifun'umsebenzi (Work for all), there's a jobless army at my door
Sifun'umsebenzi

Papa sits alone in the kitchen
Thirty years a mining man
He still has to fight for the right to work
Whether the times are good or bad

Hear them sing in the street now
Hear the sound of marching feet now

Sifun'umsebenzi (Work for all), we need to work to be
Sifun'umsebenzi (Work for all), there's a jobless army in the streets
Sifun'umsebenzi (Work for all), in a wage a hidden war
Sifun'umsebenzi (Work for all), there's a jobless army at my door
Sifun'umsebenzi, fun'umsebenzi
Sifun'umsebenzi, wo thina, sifun'umsebenzi
Sifun'umsebenzi, wo thina, sifun'umsebenzi

We need work for all (Sifun'umsebenzi)
We need work for all, sifun'umsebenzi wo thina, sifun'umsebenzi
We need work for all, sifun'umsebenzi wo thina, sifun'umsebenzi
We need work for all

Sifun'umsebenzi (Work for all), we need to work to be
Sifun'umsebenzi (Work for all), there's a jobless army in the streets
Sifun'umsebenzi (Work for all), in a wage a hidden war
Sifun'umsebenzi (Work for all), oh, a jobless army's at my door
Sifun'umsebenzi, (Work for all), we need to work to be
Sifun'umsebenzi, (Work for all), so many mouth at home to feed
Sifun'umsebenzi (Work for all), in a wage a hidden war
Sifun'umsebenzi (Work for all), oh, a jobless army's at my door
Sifun'umsebenzi, fun'umsebenzi
Sifun'umsebenzi, wo thina, sifun'umsebenzi
(We need work for all, wo thina, sifun'umsebenzi)

We want work for all (We want work for all)
