Lay your roots, beneath these evergreens,
Lay your roots, beneath these evergreens,
Darling tell the truth, beneath these evergreens,
We'll see our babies bloom, beneath these evergreens.
Daughter, they will see you as a flower,
Want you to wither and turn sour,
But your roots are built like towers,
Beneath you.
Lay your roots, beside this baobab tree,
Lay your roots, in ancient fertile dreams,
Lay your roots, your motherland will sing,
Lay your roots, one day they'll make you queen.
Mother, I will have to prove my worth,
I've had this skin and name since birth,
Will my roots thrive in this earth,
Beneath you.

Lay your roots, beneath these evergreens,
Lay your roots, beneath these evergreens,
Darling tell the truth, beneath these evergreens,
We'll see our babies bloom, beneath these evergreens.
Daughter, they will see you as a flower,
Want you to wither and turn sour,
But your roots are built like towers,
Beneath you.
Lay your roots, beside this baobab tree,
Lay your roots, in ancient fertile dreams,
Lay your roots, your motherland will sing,
Lay your roots, one day they'll make you queen.
Mother, I will have to prove my worth,
I've had this skin and name since birth,
Will my roots thrive in this earth,
Beneath you.
Lay your roots, beneath these evergreens,
Darling tell the truth, beneath these evergreens,
We'll see our babies bloom, beneath these evergreens.
Daughter, they will see you as a flower,
Want you to wither and turn sour,
But your roots are built like towers,
Beneath you.
Lay your roots, beside this baobab tree,
Lay your roots, in ancient fertile dreams,
Lay your roots, your motherland will sing,
Lay your roots, one day they'll make you queen.
Mother, I will have to prove my worth,
I've had this skin and name since birth,
Will my roots thrive in this earth,
Beneath you.
