Lyrics:Paul Simon)

Joseph's face was black as night
The pale yellow moon shone in his
eyes
His path was marked
By the stars in the Southern Hemisphere
And he walked his
days
Under African skies

This is the story of how we begin to remember
This is
the powerful pulsing of love in the vein
After the dream of falling and calling your name
out
These are the roots of rhythm
And the roots of rhythm remain

In early
memory
Mission music
Was ringing 'round my nursery door
I said take this child,
Lord
From Tucson Arizona
Give her the wings to fly through harmony
And she won't
bother you no more

This is the story of how we begin to remember
This is the
powerful pulsing of love in the vein
After the dream of falling and calling your name
out
These are the roots of rhythm
And the roots of rhythm remain

Joseph's face
was black as night
And the pale yellow moon shone in his eyes
His path was marked
By
the stars in the Southern Hemisphere
And he walked the length of his days
Under African
skies
