| My African Child So young in heart
 He cried for milk
 So poor and helpless
 Mama weeps in pain
 
 His eyes so red
 A week he cried
 A month ago,
 To the world he came
 
 Mama so young
 Papa has run
 Under the bridge
 They lay their heads
 
 In storm and rain
 They search for food
 Through man and sex
 Mama fed him well
 
 The days went by
 Mama health decreased
 Only five months old
 Mama said goodbye
 
 In rain and cold
 He cried so loud
 In sun and heat
 He wept and wept
 
 Three days gone by
 Since mama left
 And now he sleeps
 To meet with mama
