Kingston Trio – The Merry Minuet (Rioting In Africa) lyrics
Album: kingston trio live at the hungry i
they're rioting in africa
they're starving in spain
there's hurricanes in florida
and texas needs rain
the whole world is festering with unhappy souls
the french hate the germans the germans hate the poles
Italians hate Yugoslavs, South Africans hate the Dutch
And i don't like anybody very much
But we can be thankful and tranquil and proud
That Man's been endowed with the mushroom shaped cloud
And we know for certain that some lovely day
Some one will set the spark off and we will all be blown away
They're rioting in Africa
There's strife in Iran
What nature doesn't do to us
Will be done by our fellow man!
