Congo

You say that I put chains on you

But I don't think that's really true

But if you want to be free from me

You gotta lose me in another world

Send me to the Congo I'm free to leave

There's always somewhere anybody can lead

Send me to the Congo you have to believe

You can do it if you want to just do what you please

Like a soldier ant

I will wait for the signal to act

To take a walk right through the door

If you don't want me here anymore

Send me to the Congo I'm free to leave

There's always somewhere anybody can lead

Send me to the Congo you have to believe

You can do it if you want to just do what you please

Into my heart you came

And gave a whole new meaning to my life

Into my world you brought a light

I thought it never would go out

Send me to the Congo I'm free to leave

There's always somewhere anybody can lead

Send me to the Congo you have to believe

You can do it if you want to just do what you please

You can send me to the Congo I'm free to leave

There's always somewhere anybody can lead

Yes you can send me to the Congo, you have to believe

You can do it if you want to just do what you please

I would never be the one to say you had no reason

To want me somewhere else far far away

But someday you may understand, someday you will see

That someone who would die for you is all I've ever been

Congo the Congo, if that's how it's got to be

Congo the Congo, if that's what you want from me

I would never be the one to say you had no reason

To want me somewhere else far far away

Someday you may understand someday you will see
