Moore, Christy - Biko Drum Lyrics
And they went home on an Easter road
On a silent night tryin' not to show
Who goes where and who goes when
Thinkin' some day soon they'll get it back again
Little boy blue can't be sold
Under tin roof and a plastic wall
Thinkin' someday soon we're goin' to leave it all
And the renegades sing all the renegade songs
And the ones who know hope they're doin' wrong
The blacks and the coloreds play the Biko Drum
Listen to the Biko Drum
Transvaal Kids on a Transvaal day
To a city of dreams and solid ground
Thinkin' someday soon we're gonna come around
Steve he's livin' in a prison cell
All the friends that know hope he's doin' well
Down here they listen to the Biko Drum
Down here they listen to the songs he sung
And the renegades sing all the renegade songs
And the ones who know hope they're doin' wrong
The blacks and the coloreds play the Biko Drum
Listen to the Biko Drum
Nelson listen to the people sing
Nelson Mandela the people's king
Twenty-five years in a white man's jail
Twenty-five years we couldn't make him say
And the renegades sing all the renegade songs
And the ones who know hope they're doin' wrong
The blacks and the coloreds play the Biko Drum
Listen to the Biko Drum

Robert McBride bombed McGoos bar in Durban. Three women died. Scores injured. No police, army or political targets were present. He was given medals by the ANC government and is a 'hero' of the struggle against Apartheid and now is head of Durban's police force.
