Gold Coast 360

Verse 1

In the British West Africa among citizens of the Gold Coast

The social classes of the people determined the system on it’s own

Wakɔ school kakra a Wonni Problem ɛnyɛ dɛn ara a wobenya post

Nanso Paa Grant mo type saa no diɛ nsuotor kraa ɛnka yɛ coat frisɛ

We can afford Gramophone. We don\'t write letters we use telephone

And we observe our Friday night dancing to highlife and calypso

Hook:

The elites were parking their Jaguar entering the disco in cooly high

75 gun salute to those who were smoking the peace pipe

Outside the gate diɛ concert yetwi soloku with the moonlight

Chronicles of the true Ghanaians

Chorus:

(Young pioneer)

Premanfoɔ yenie yaba (Young pioneer)

1960 foɔ Ghana (Young pioneer)

Yɛbrɛso deɛ na yenyaa sika (Young pioneer)

Kwame Nkrumah adaworoma (Young pioneer)

Then to walantu walansa (Young pioneer)

Tankasse foɔ pagya yensa (Young pioneer)

From the Gold coast to Ghana (Young pioneer)

We are the true citizens

Verse 2

Ebi befra kente, ebinso de political suit ne boldtie, shoe no deɛ yenka honourable general mosquito ma freestyle

Article 26 nonti kanee na obia ne ne own style.

Hook:

From the British Accra, the James town elites we bring you greetings,

The sea men from takoradi are saying we\'re broken the English

Police go, soldier come, l go pay you tomorrow, this is the season

Of potomanto and pounds sterling...

Chorus:

(Young pioneer)

Premanfoɔ yenie yaba (Young pioneer)

Yɛbrɛso deɛ yenyaa sika (Young pioneer)

Kwame Nkrumah adaworoma (Young pioneer)

Then to walantu walansa (Young pioneer)

Tankasse foɔ apegya y3nsa (Young pioneer)

From the Gold coast to Ghana (Young pioneer)

We are the true citizens.
