Lyrics:
Long ago there was a sound in the night A kwela man singing under the street light With a cheap guitar he gave his sorrow a smile And he sowed his songs in the alley ways mile upon mile Chorus Ye hum ho la lo kwela man Ye hum ho la lo kwela man Ye hum ho la lo kwela man You gave it your life Living low with the pennywhistle-tea-chest-base-gang I followed him home and he danced as he sang But now he's gone Not even the slightest traces Of a kwela song And the street is full of empty spaces Chorus Nobody knows did he survive the winding road Did he find a song that took him back to the heartland Here I stand lost in a memory Of a kwela man singing in the long gone twilight Chorus When I followed you home kwela man You filled my soul, kwela kwela When you sang your song kwela man You gave it your life Ye hum ho la lo kwela man Ye hum ho la lo kwela man Ye hum ho la lo kwela man You gave it your life
