By Way Of The Drum Lyrics

You took the heat... out of the flame, you took the heat right out of the flame.

You took the heat... out of the flame, you took the heat right out of the flame.

Out of the fire burning, they came walking side by side;
They were ??????????????? untouched by the burning fire.
They said he took the heat right out of the flame;
He took the heat right out of the flame,
Nobody but the Lord, the Lord God Almighty took the heat out of the flame.

Them drums won't burn (burn, burn, burn!)
Them drums don't burn (b-b-burn, b-b-b-b-burn.)
Them drums don't burn.
Them drums don't burn. (No they won't, n-n-n-n-no, no....)

Ahhhhhhh-partheid lead to genocide.
There'll be no cause............. for wanting.
But the word, had to be heard.
They could not, we wouldn't let 'em, could not claim the drums.

(You took the heat... out of the flame,
you took the heat right out of the flame.
You took the heat... out of the flame,
you took the heat right out of the flame.)

(Them drums don't burn.
Them drums don't burn.
Them drums don't burn.
Them drums don't burn.)

Deep in the jungle where the coconut grows,
Where the tiger and the lion boogie with the rhino,
There's a tribe over here, there's a tribe over there,
Drums beatin' funky rhythm they were talking everywhere.

It took the heat... out of the flame,
It took the heat right out of the flame.
It took the heat... out of the flame,
It took the heat right out of the flame.

Drums don't burn, said them drums don't burn.
Drums don't burn, said them drums don't burn.

Right down in Johannesburg, there's still one sound that can be heard:
They're beating, they're beating, they're beating, they're beating them drums.

Right now in Johannesburg there's still one sound that can be heard:
They will not, can not, shall not burn them drums.

(Them drums don't burn.
Them drums don't burn.
Them drums don't burn.
Them drums don't burn.)

He took the heat... out of the flame,
He took the heat right out of the flame.
He took the heat... out of the flame,
He took the heat right out of the flame.
He took the heat... out of the flame,
He took the heat right out of the flame.
He took the heat... out of the flame,
He took the heat right out of the flame.

Drums don't burn, said them drums don't burn.
Drums don't burn, said them drums don't burn.

Do them party lines without the overtime because you do not need a dime.
(Bum, bum ba bum, bum bum bum bum bum bummum)
Who feels the signal feels the beat because you do not need a thing.
(Bum, bum ba bum, bum bum bum bum bum bummum)

(Wow wow wow wow, wow wow wow wowow wawa)
(Bum, bum ba bum, bum bum bum bum bum bummum)

(The drums don't burn, it don't matter, they don't burn)

You can kick the drums but they won't burn.
You can beat the drums but they won't burn.

He took the heat... out of the flame,
He took the heat right out of the flame.
He took the heat... out of the flame,
He took the heat right out of the flame.
He took the heat... out of the flame,
He took the heat right out of the flame.
He took the heat... out of the flame,
He took the heat right out of the flame.

Too all you people out there.
Men who are the chosen ones (?) wherever you are.
We sing this strong song right from the heart,
Letting you know that the drums won't burn.

He took the heat out of the flame.
He took the heat out of the flame.

We took the heat, he took the heat, they took the heat, we took the heat out of the drum.
