Leaving because of freedom

There's no more room for me

Can't look at these trees

That raised me

Every morning

Leaving because

This house seems too dark

Leaving because

I've got to be a man

I'm going to the jungle

I'm going to this big river

To join my friends

Don't go away

Don't go away

Show me your friends

And I'll show you who you are

Show me your relatives

And I'll tell you where to go

Eh! Do what you want

Eh! Eh! What you need

One only knows his own sorrow

The ones that can make things happen

Never get the chance
