Jack Stafford - The Ballad of Ella Kissi-Debrah Lyrics




Reading in the papers
Numbers written there
Of how many die each year
Cos of dirty air

But numbers they don't speak
Drama they lack
Unlike the sound of hearing someone
Die from an asthma attack

What can change?

So that - Ella Kissi-Debrah
Didn't die in vein
And we all take action
And Policies change

Ella Kissi-Debrah
Hear our prayers
So that no more children
Will die
From breathing air

Ella Kissi-Debrah
Deserves a happy tune
But this song is not for her
It is meant for you

To pluck and play your heart strings
So you think twice before we drive
And decide who you will give your vote to
So more kids stay alive

So that - Ella Kissi-Debrah
Didn't die in vein
And we all take action
And Policies change

Ella Kissi-Debrah
Hear our prayers
So that no more children
Will die
From breathing air
