Sisterthere’s a wind that never dies
Sisterwe’re breathing together
Sisterour love and hopes forever keep on moving oh so slowly in the world

They gave you sunshine
They gave you sea
They gave you everything but the jailhouse key
They gave you coffee
They gave you tea
They gave you everything but equality

Angelacan you hear the earth is turning?
Angelathe world watches you
Angelayou soon will be returning to your sisters and brothers in the world

Sisteryou’re still a people teacher
Sisteryour word reaches far
Sisterthere’s a million different races but we all share the same future in the world

They gave you sunshine
They gave you sea
They gave you everything but the jailhouse key
They gave you coffee
They gave you tea
They gave you everything but equality

Angelathey put you in prison
Angelathey shot down your man
Angelayou’re one of the millions of political prisoners in the world
