Lyrics

Sue Peters (c) 2009

Plant the seeds, wait for rain
But the rains don't come and the crops don't grow
Work hard today, plan for tomorrow
But the rains don't come and the crops don't grow
Ugandan soil is red and dusty
When the rains don't come and the crops don't grow

CHORUS:
Who decides who lives or dies
And damn all those who prosthelytize
That we all get what we deserve
There's nothing further from the truth
Everytime we turn our eyes
Another hungry baby cries
His mother's pain cannot be justified

Finally peace, hope for the future
But the rains don't come and the crops don't grow
Leave the camps, plough the fields
But the rains don't come and the crops don't grow
The Ugandan sun is unrelenting
When the rains don't come and the crops don't grow

Forgotten people pray for help
When the rains don't come and the crops don't grow
