Courage My Friend the Devil Will Die

COURAGE MY FRIEND THE DEVIL WILL DIE I see your eyes are crimson And your voice is hoarse You have lamented far too long, all hope seems lost No one seems to care about your afflictions... Yesterday you went to Mulago but doctors were on strike The other day you couldn’t get your pension because it was never there But take courage my friend…the devil will die The corruption will cease and all will be well The government programs will sail The roads will be built to last The teachers will teach their children What is yours shall be deprived you not The corrupt shall be tried And the vice shall cease All shall be well because we will it to be Then shall you call me and pat me on the back For the devil shall be dead and all will be well.
