| Chorus This yah one name poor people song turn it up (turn up the music). So tell me how them ago ban this yah one so turn it up (turn up the music) Poor people can't find food to eat so turn it up (turn up the music) and man a dead like fowl out ah street so turn it up (turn up the music) Verse 1 Too long now them have the people suffer Too long them have we like garbage in gutter Too long them sit down in a office and ah utter, and we still ah nham dry bread, can't buy butter Too long now we nar see no day pay Too long the basket in ah the kitchen empty Too long the youths them out ah street hungry cant see no food nar money Verse 2 Can't afford to pay fe them school fee see we drop out of school there No woork nah day belly emty can't see a ten nor a twenty. Mama don't have no food in she kitchen. Can't buy rice well nah talk bout chicken. Seems like the back yard stop grow pumkin. Can't find flour to make fry dumplin No one hears we hungry cry No one shares fe them piece of pie No one cares when poor people die and No one dares say maddzart lie Verse 3 They dont know what it feels like, or what it seems like, to nah eat no food from morning Don't know what it hurts like, or what it sounds like, to have to hear a belly there yarning Don't know what it is like, or what it taste like, to have eat a next man leavings Don't know what we live like, don't know our life so bother when you hear them talking |
