See the people standing in the doorway
See the brightlights on a summernight
I can hear the music from fattie’s bar
I can see my past passing by

I had no change to say goodbye to romance
I had no time to leave it all behind
It was the place I knew
Where my dreams came true
Until they broke it down
Sophiatown

I can see she beens up in good street
I can hear the winds before the storm
I can see them coming on a winternight
Breaking down the place where I was born

I had no chance to say goodbye to romance
I had no time to leave it all behind
It was the place I knew
Where my dreams came true
Until they broke it down
Sophiatown

It was the place I knew
Where my dreams came true
Until they broke it down

I had no change to say goodbye to romance
I had no time to leave it all behind
It was the place I knew
Where my dreams came true
Until they broke it down
Sophiatown
