	Another John and Yoko-duet. They attempt to sound like Frank and Nancy in a ballad-like style, but the lyrics doesn’t match with the music at all. Things speed up a little at 1.03. Yoko sounds like a child. Terrible song, heartbreaking terrible.	Bobber	September 11, 2013
	Sort of a lull after a string of great songs, and preceding Yoko's terrific knockout punch "We're All Water". I have absolutely no idea who this Angela woman is about whom they sing.	Bruce Beatlefan	April 15, 2006

Lyrics

Angela, they put you in prison
Angela, they shot down your man
Angela, you're one of the millions of political prisoners in the world.

Sister, there's wind that never dies
Sister, we're breathing together
Sister, our loves and hopes forever keep on moving oh so slowly in the world.

Angela, can you hear the earth is turning?
Angela, the world watches you.

Angela, you soon will be returning to your sisters and brothers of the world.

Sister, you're still a people teacher
Sister, your word reaches far
Sister, there's a million different races but we all share the same future in the world.

They gave you sunshine
They gave you sea
They gave you everything but the jail house key.
They gave you coffee
They gave you tea
They gave you everything but equality.
