(Luigi Fedele; Marius Percali; Raff Todesco) 1985
Oh eh oh
It's afrikano man
Oh eh oh
It's afrikano man
Oh eh oh
It's afrikano man
Oh eh oh
It's afrikano man
Co-co-common man
Oh eh oh eh
Co-co-common man
Oh eh oh eh
Co-co-common man
Oh eh oh eh
From the jungle land
From the dark virgin forest
Comes a man as black as coal at night
Nobody knows his name
No one even cares for him
Co-co-common man
Children want to play with him
He brings in the fun
Crazy like a clown
And then he sat alone
Then he sings the blues calling
Co-co-common man
I was living in the jungle
I was trapped like a monkey
Devil thing
A big metal bird came down from the sky
And white people funny clothes show in
Beer cans all around
When they saw me
Made me drink much of that yellow liquid
Oh eh oh
It's afrikano man
Oh eh oh
It's afrikano man
Co-co-common man
Oh eh oh eh (It's afrikano man)
Co-co-common man
Oh eh oh eh (It's afrikano man)
From the jungle land
From the dark virgin forest
Comes a man as black as coal at night
Nobody knows his name
No one even cares for him
Co-co-common man
Where I'd walked if I was in this flat place
That I know called city
Met a lion swanning around
Among concrete trees
Along some white people around running like ??bambis??
Doing all day long that
When they look at me, say
Oh eh oh
It's afrikano man
Oh eh oh
It's afrikano man
Oh eh oh
It's afrikano man
Oh eh oh
It's afrikano man
Co-co-common man
Oh eh oh eh
Co-co-common man
Oh eh oh eh
Co-co-common man
Oh eh oh eh
Co-co-common man
Oh eh oh eh
Co-co-common man
Children want to play with him
He brings in the fun
Crazy like a clown
And then he sat alone
Then he sings the blues calling
Co-co-common man
When I woke up
I was in a strange place
That I know called city
Met a lion swanning around
Among concrete trees
A lot of white people around
Running like monkeys
Doing all day long that
When they look at me say
Oh eh oh
It's afrikano man
Oh eh oh
It's afrikano man
Oh eh oh
It's afrikano man
Oh eh oh
It's afrikano man
Co-co-common man
Oh eh oh eh
Co-co-common man
