African Village by The Group Fire Lyrics
The African drum reminds us of the villages of old
And the proverb that says 'It takes a village to raise a child'
So to all you grown-ups who believe in family, community, and that children are the future
This message is for you
We might not act like it all the time, but we really need you
We really need you to show you care
To help us learn how to make this world a better place
To gives us rules, guidelines, structure
And help us grow into the people that God wants us to be
We would love for you to be a part of the village
And the proverb that says 'It takes a village to raise a child'
So to all you grown-ups who believe in family, community, and that children are the future
This message is for you
We might not act like it all the time, but we really need you
We really need you to show you care
To help us learn how to make this world a better place
To gives us rules, guidelines, structure
And help us grow into the people that God wants us to be
We would love for you to be a part of the village
