Why do you travel to a far land?
Why struggling through clay and sand?
Going through the stress and pain
Spending money for others to gain
While our own goes down the drain
In our land great things abound
Eat the fruits within your own farm
Before you go elsewhere looking for more
Stop, turn around and see
We have made in Ghana
As good as gold
So good is our great country
Blessed with natural resources
Favoured with good working climate
And filled with skillful labour
We are a country with great future
We produce and manufacture
Stop, turn around and see
We have made in Ghana
Look out for made in Ghana goods
They are quality and affordable
They are efficient and durable
They are the wheels of our economy
The ladder to our destination
The fruits of our patriotism
Stop, turn around and see
We have made in Ghana
Our sacrifice and our pride
That will bring development on our side
Let us learn to embrace our own
And our nation will wear its crown
Stop, turn around and see
We have made in Ghana
