Miriam Makeba & The Skylarks - Sophiatown Is Gone

The birds are gone
The streets look sad and dry
Old Sophia is gone

Bom, bom, bom, bom
Bom, bom, bom, bom, bom
Old Sophia is gone forever
Ruins, ruins all round
Sweet Sophia is broken forever
Ruins, ruins all round

Gone are those lovely valleys
Where the old folks met

Bom, bom, bom, bom
Bom, bom, bom, bom
Old Sophia is gone forever
Ruins, ruins all round
Sweet Sophia is broken forever
Ruins, ruins all round

Gone are those lovely valleys
Where the old folks met

Bom, bom, bom, bom
Bom, bom, bom, bom
Old Sophia is gone forever
Ruins, ruins all round
Sweet Sophia is broken forever
Ruins, ruins all round

The birds are gone
The streets look sad and dry
Old Sophia is gone
Old Sophia is gone
