Shadow men from the outlands come to town
Looking for Bafazane, they want to gun him down, oh no
They say he thunders too loud and his people are proud
And they'll never give in while he's still around
And it's the sky above that he loves

(They've got) Bullets for Bafazane, they want to gun him down
(They've got) Bullets for Bafazane, oh they're searching the town
(They've got) bullets for Bafazane, and the word's got around
(They've got) bullets for Bafazane

Eyes wide open in a backroom, finger on the trigger
Listening for any sound that will betray the silent deadly figure

He's got iron in his soul
He's got a smile in his eyes
He makes dancing shoes from old car tyres
And it's the sky up above that he loves

(They've got) Bullets for Bafazane, they want to gun him down
(They've got) Bullets for Bafazane, oh they're searching the town
(They've got) bullets for Bafazane, and the word's got around
(They've got) bullets for Bafazane

It's the sky up above that he loves
'Cause he's still alive and for him that's enough
It's the sky up above that he loves
'Cause he's still alive and for him that's enough

They've got bullets for Bafazane, they want to gun him down
They've got bullets for Bafazane, oh they're searching the town
They've got bullets for Bafazane, and the word's got around
They've got bullets for Bafazane
