Coconut woman told me the other day
Nothing, no one can take my strength away
So I asked her why what's the mystery
She told me "knowledge and a clear sighted way to be"

Coconut woman told me...

"Step up into the limelight coconut
Get inspired by the insight coconut
Struggle got a lot of iron coconut
Makes you strong like a lion"

Coconut woman is calling out
Everyday you can hear her shout
Coconut woman is calling out
Everyday you can hear her shout

Coconut woman used to say
"don't let them rule if they leave you astray,
you should stay and defend your human right
together with our sisters we can win the fight"

"Step up into the limelight coconut
Get inspired by the insight coconut
Struggle got a lot of iron coconut
Makes you strong like a lion"

Coconut woman is calling out
Everyday you can hear her shout
Coconut woman is calling out

"Revolution, a revolution!
Revolution, a revolution!"

If he is A you're always B
Don't be afraid don't leave the world to those
Who seem to hate you if you leave your place
Go on, you have all the ways
You're strong, you're bright, you are here to take the fight
Regain your strength and take what's yours, open up your true resource

Be strong, be bright, be proud when you're sisters fight
Be strong, be bright, be proud when you're sisters fight...

Be strong, be bright, be proud when you're sisters fight
Be strong, be bright, be proud when you're sisters fight...
