Cape Town Lyrics


Took you in the vineyard a couple hours after, I met you
Didn't need my passport, said I'd let you keep it forever
I hardly knew a thing about you
I got lost in Cape Town, in Cape TownI saw you, I met you
I loved you, I left you in Cape TownWoke me in the morning
Asked me if I meant it, I didn't
Asked to be her husband
She already had one in prisonI hardly knew a thing about you
I got lost in Cape Town, in Cape TownI saw you, I met you
I loved you, I left you in Cape Town, in Cape TownRan all out of paper, lost it all in pontoon
When I was in Asia I forgot how to call you
Went out to a graveyard to bum a couple of flowers
To give to you when I got back to Cape Town

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Hugh Masekela (born Johannesburg, April 4, 1939) is a South African flugelhorn and cornet player. In 1961, as part of the anti-apartheid campaign, he was exiled to the United States where he was befriended by Harry Belafonte. He has played primarily in jazz ensembles, with guest appearances on albums by The Byrds and Paul Simon. In 1987, he had a hit single with "Bring Him Back Home" which became an anthem for the movement to free Nelson Mandela. After apartheid ended, Masekela returned to South Africa where he now lives.
