Guess What's Happening Lyrics

See that broken hearted man
Toiling in the burning sun
Disappointed African
Doesn't even over standAfter so many years of sweat and tears
Still he's living in fear
Wondering if and when
He's gonna have his shareWell, guess what's happening
A new day's dawning
See the black son's rising
Soon he will be freeSee that poor disgruntled youth
Trying his best to know the truth
Why his ancestors have died
From those all who robbed and ruledSo many years of blood and stain
Still he's working in vain
Wondering if and when
He'll ever have his shareWell, guess what's happening
A new day's dawning
I see a new horizon

Soon he will be freeHow could life be so unfair
He wonders how some get out there
Sitting in their rocking chair
While he's living in despairAfter so many years of sweat and tears
Still he's living in fear
Wondering if and when
He's gonna have his shareGuess what's happening
I see a new day's dawning
I see the table is turning
Soon he will be free, yo, ho, hoGuess what's happening
A new day's dawning
I see the table is turning
Soon he will be free, yo, ho, hoGuess what's happening
I see the table is turning
See a new horizon
Soon he will be free
Guess what's happening
I see a new day's dawning
