How is there going to be peace?
When there is no justice, oh no, oh
Someone is taking more than their share
Of the bounties of this land and that's not fair
So little people got more than they need
While there's so many hungry mouths in the world to feed
And I am would give my heart so true
And I will give my love for you, tell me
How is there going to be peace?
When there is no justice, oh no, oh
Someone is taking my share
And they just don't give a damn, no they don't care
So, you just might as well face it
'Cause there ain't no other way to erase it
And I will give my heart so true

I've got a hard road to travel and a rough, rough way to go
Said, it's a hard road to travel and a rough, rough way to go
But I can't turn back, my heart is fixed
My mind's made up, I'll never stop, my faith will see, see me through
Let me tell you, I'm all alone, this lonesome road, I roam
I've got no love to call my very own
Oh, the river gets deeper, the hills get steeper
And the pain gets deeper every day, yeah
I've got a hard road to travel and a rough, rough way to go
Said, it's a hard road to travel and a rough, rough way to go
But I can't turn back, my heart is fixed
My mind's made up, I'll never stop, my faith will see, see me through
One more thing, I dream of a home, far beyond the sea
Where there is love and peace and joy for me
Oh, in my eyes, I see troubles and danger for me
But destiny where it leads me, I must go, hey
I've got a hard road to travel and a rough, rough way to go
Said, it's a hard road to travel and a rough, rough way to go
But I can't turn back, my heart is fixed
My mind's made up, I'll never stop, my faith will see, see me through

Yes, the homework class
It`s allmost empty
It`s a grate lost
For who are plenty
There´s no turning back
At South Africa

The shelter of your love. (Longing for the shelter of

How I survived, Oh, I dont know.
Still I'm glad to say, I'm still here today.
I tried to pretend, but it was just a show.
Now I, I just cant hide. I had to swallow my pride.
And I had to:
Run for the shelter of your love. (x4)
You know I'm a man, I dont like to brag.
But it's been cold and empty out here, it's been a
drag.
A man dont fight and run away. He will live to fight
another day.
Well it's these words I sing that keeps me holding on
today.
I know that I can:
Run for the shelter of your love. (x4)
The shelter of your love. (Longing for the shelter of
your love.)

your love.)
The shelter of your love.
I know that I can:
Run for the shelter of your love. (That's what kept me
holding on so strong.)
Run for the shelter (So strong, so long.)
Run for the shelter of your love.
Run for the shelter of your love.
Shelter of your love (talking 'bout the shelter of your
love)

By the rivers of Babylon ,
Where he sat down,
And there he wept
When he remembered Zion
Oh, the wicked carried us away in captivity,
Required from us a song,
How can we sing King Alpha's song
Inna strange land?
So, let the words of our mouth
And the meditations of our heart
Be acceptable in Thy sight

Verse 1
Well, they tell me of a pie up in the sky
Waiting for me when I die
But between the day you're born and when you die
They never seem to hear even your cry
Refrain
So as sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna get my share now, what's mine
And then the harder they come
The harder they fall, one and all
Ooh, the harder they come
Harder they fall, one and all
Verse 2
Well, the oppressors are trying to keep me down
Trying to drive me underground
And they think that they have got the battle won
I say forgive them Lord, they know not what they've done
Refrain
'Cause as sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna get my share now, what's mine
And then the harder they come
The harder they fall, one and all
Ooh, the harder they come
Harder they fall, one and all
Verse 3
And I keep on fighting for the things I want
Though I know that when you're dead you can't
But I'd rather be a free man in my grave
Than living as a puppet or a slave
Refrain
So as sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna get my share right now, what's mine
And then the harder they come
The harder they fall, one and all
Ooh, the harder they come
Harder they fall, one and all

Waterfall
(Jimmy Cliff)
Another sun to shine
Another place of mine
If I could have my way
I'd stay forever
Look at the waterfall !
See how the shadow scroll
If you belive me,
We'll stay together
And we'll sit right here on the grass,
And look at the sun,
At the sun, at the sky, at the sky...
Oh, oh, oh, oh...
I need you everyday
And we'll stay this way
The same ol'place we found
It's ours forever
And we all can again
We both do understand
I'll be your "only one"
I'll leave you never !
When I see you, you smile
I see the waterfall
With my head in the sky,
I wanna remember
I wanna remember
The blue !
(Instrumental Interlude)
Another sun to shine
Another place of mine
If I could have my way
I'd stay forever
Look at the waterfall !
See how the shadow scroll
If you belive me,
We'll stay together
And we'll sit right here on the grass,
And look at the sun,
At the sun, at the sky, at the sky...
Oh, oh, oh, oh...
La, la, la, la, la, la

Run for the shelter of your love. (x4)
You know I'm a man, I dont like to brag.
But it's been cold and empty out here, it's been a
drag.
A man dont fight and run away. He will live to fight
another day.

I work all day

Work so hard to get a roof over my head
But the one's I work with acts like their my masters
When what I refuse I'm more then equal partner
I can't get no justice
Under this system
I can't get no justice in this society
I work day and night to find my daily needs
but freedom is suppressed by another one's greed
Why should serve the one's who control another one's
needs?
It's rebellion these kind of actions breeds
I can't get no justice
Under this system
I can't get no justice
In this society
I can't get no justice
Under this system
I can't get no justice
In this society
Why should one be judged by the color of their skin?
Instead of look what it is they show from deep within
if they keep wanting to control what we earn
Run a press around because we're going to burn (going
to burn)
I can't get no justice under this system
I can't get me no justice

No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry.
'Cause 'cause I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Boystown,
Observing those hypocrites
Mingle with those good people we met
Good friends we knew, oh, good friends we lost
Along the way,
In this great future, we didn't forget the past;
So dry your tears, I say.
No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry.
No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry.
'Cause 'cause I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Boystown,
And brother X would make the fire light,
Like the logwood burnin' through the nights,
Then we would cook fishty and cornmeal porridge,
Of which I'll share with you,
My feet is my only carriage
And so I've got to push on through.
Oh, while I say,
Everything's gonna be all right!
Everything's gonna be all right!
Everything's gonna be all right,
Repeat x3
no, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry.
little darlin', don't you cry no tears no tears;
No, woman, no cry,
No, woman, no cry.

There's a day of feasting and a day of famine
Day of sadness and a day of joy
You could see in the day of feasting
Life isn't just a little play-like toy.
So the day arrived when you least expected
Cos you always thought you were well protected
Now you feel like a fish out of water
So now you're wondering what's the matter.
Oh remember you said it wouldn't happen to you
Now you're thinking how to start a new
A drowning man will catch at a straw
You were warned but you wouldn't take heed.
Everything in creation must obey a law.
Its true in words as it is in deed.
You were so puffed up in your pomps and pride
You're exposed you got none to hide
Yes, you used to look down on the folks beside you
Never they think you would have come down too
Remember they said you got to reap what you sow
Simple truth everybody know
Chorus
Oh what are you on a house of exile
Watching you now on your own last mile
Yes, what are you on a house of exile
Watching you now on your own last mile
Music interlude
Oh what are you on a house of exile
Watching you now on your own last mile
O OH what are you on a house of exile
Watching you now on your own last mile
Everything in creation must obey a law.

I was born and raised in the ghetto
Talk with me and you'll know
I wasn't satisfied with living on the side
I started looking around for a possibility
But listen to my story, of what became of me
I met a businessman
Who said he got some friends back East
Said, "Why don't you come along?
Well we could help you atleast"
"Make you into a big star
By playing your guitar"
But the joke was on me
They left me flat to see
Going back West
(Going back West)
Yes I know, I'll make out alright
Going back West
(Going back West)
Where my music's playing all night
Going back West
(Going back West)
Think I'll do alright
Struggling for recognition, identity and respect
I got a lot of promises, they told me not to fret
Said, "We will stand by you
If the going gets rough"
But when I started sinking
They didn't even bluff
Going back West
(Going back West)
Yes I know, I'll make out alright
Going back West
(Going back West)
Where my music's playing all night
Going back West
(Going back West)
I think, I'll do alright
'Bout a year has come and gone
And left me standing here
Thinking how it could have been
'Cause still I ain't nowhere
They surely took me for a ride
Trampled on my pride
But I'll hold my head up high
Got no more tears to cry
Going back West
(Going back West)
Yes I know, I'll make out alright
Going back West
(Going back West)
Where my music's playing all night
Going back West
(Going back West)
I think, I'll do alright
Going back West
(Going back West)
Yes I know I'll make out alright
Going back West
(Going back West)
Where my music's playing all night
Going back West
(Going back West)
Think, I'll do alright
Going back West
(Going back West)
Yes I know, I'll make out alright
Going back West
(Going back West)
Where my music's playing all night
Going back West

When they kick out your front door
How you gonna come?
With your hands on your head
Or on the trigger of your gun
When the law break in
How you gonna go?
Shot down on the pavement
Or waiting in death row
You can crush us
You can bruise us
But you'll have to answer to
Oh, guns of Brixton
The money feels good
And your life you like it well
But surely your time will come
As in heaven, as in hell
You see, he feels like Ivan
Born under the Brixton sun
His game is called survivin'
At the end of the harder they come
You know it means no mercy
They caught him with a gun
No need for the Black Maria
Goodbye to the Brixton sun
You can crush us
You can bruise us
But you'll have to answer to
Oh, the guns of Brixton
When they kick out your front door
How you gonna come?
With your hands on your head
Or on the trigger of your gun
You can crush us
You can bruise us
And even shoot us
But oh, the guns of Brixton
Shot down on the pavement
Waiting in death row
His game was survivin'
As in heaven as in hell
You can crush us
You can bruise us
But you'll have to answer to
Oh, the guns of Brixton
Oh, the guns of Brixton
Oh, the guns of Brixton
Oh, the guns of Brixton

Gotta find that girl and make her mine,
yeah man
Oh she’s the one with the big brown eyes.
In my dream I met this girl, we fell in love
and she is a pearl.
I promised her I’d show her the world,
Now I’m awake and there is no girl.
Sailing down the coast in my little rowboat,
Ain’t found her yet got a ways to go..
Gotta find that girl and make her mine,
yeah man.
Oh she’s the one with the big brown eyes.
Now I heard that dreams come to life,
And if it's true she’ll be my wife.
Crazy they’d call me soon they’ll see.
We’ll be together in harmony.
I’ve seen a lot of girls that men admire, (echo)
and they’re fine, so fine
Not one of them compare to mine. (echo)
Not one of them compare to mine
She’s got the cutest little smile, yeah man. (echo)
She’s got the
cutest little smile
I’m looking for the one with big brown eyes.
Sailing down the coast in my little rowboat,

Ain’t found her yet got a ways to go..(echo) Ain’t
found her yet got a
ways to go
Gotta find that girl and make her mine, yeah man (echo)

Brown eyes
Gotta find that girl, yes, ah that girl,

Sailing down the coast in my little rowboat, (echo) In
my little rowboat
Ain’t found her yet got a ways to go..(echo) Ain’t

I've travelled far and wide
Over hills and mountain side
I've pushed aside my pride
All for love
I've travelled near and far
On foot, ship, train and car
I've wished upon a star
All for love
I've broken all the rules
I've even played the fool
Sometimes I blow my cool
All for love
Through burning sun and pouring rain
And even though I feel the pain
I'd do it all again
All for love
For love, for love,
For love, all for love
For love, for love, for love
All for love
I've travelled countless miles
Going in and out of styles
Wearing frown and wearing smile
All for love
Sometimes my faith decrease
And my anger increase
Still I keep the peace
All for love
For love, for love,
for love, all for love
For love, for love, for love
All for love
A man will sacrifice his wealth
And loose his health
Sometimes his poor heart melt
All for love
A woman will leave her home to Rome
And leave her family
To be with the one she loves
All for love
For love, for love,
For love, all for love
For love, for love,
For love, all for love
I look deep down in my soul
From thing that I behold
Sometimes I lose control
I've sacrificed
I pay the price
Still I hear that sweet refrain
Do it again, do it again

Many rivers to cross
But I can't seem to find my way over
Wandering I am lost
As I travel along the white cliffs of dover
Many rivers to cross
And it's only my will that keeps me alive
I've been licked, washed up for years
And I merely survive because of my pride
And this lonliness won't leave me alone
It's such a drag to be on your own
My woman left me and she didn't say why
Well, I guess I'll have to cry
Many rivers to cross
But just where to begin I'm playing for time
There have been times I find myself
Thinking of committing some dreadful crime
Yes I've got many rivers to cross
But I can't seem to find my way over
Wandering I am lost
As I travel along the white cliffs of Dover
Yes I've got many rivers to cross

Be wise, be free when you're young
When you're young
Well, someone told me, not long ago now
You're only young but for once
It's the one time in a lifetime
There is no second chance, second chance
So when you're young
Hold your head high and hold on to your dreams
There's a world waiting out there
Not always what it seems
Be wise, be free when you're young
When you're young
It's said, you got your freedom to make your own rules
Be nobody's footstool
And you may try now to change the world too
But don't let it change you, it can't change you
So when you're young
Hold your head high and hold on to your dreams
There's a world waiting out there
Not always what it seems
When you're young
When you're young
You see that many a people in my time of mend
Telling tales of regret
Step aside Grandma, step aside Grandpa
There are somethings I must get, I must get
When you're young
Hold your head high and hold on to your dreams
There's a world waiting out there
Not always what it seems
When you're young
When you're young
You know it's the right time
You know it's the right time
Said, I know
(When you're young)
Said, I know
(When you're young)
When you're young

Yes! As I was sayin', I like work, you know.
But when I work I must get paid.
You don't know the sound I'm tryin' to tell you.
Listen! Try to understand! Listen!
My forparents worked, from sun-up, 'til sun-down.
Peace could not be found now they're under the ground.
I've heard dem complain and cried out in pain.
Seeking peaceful gain under the Sun, Moon and stars.
Won't happen to me. I'm not blind, you see.
I've got to be free. I want it right here on Earth.
Got to have some fun, 'for my life is done.
Let happiness run under the Sun, Moon and stars.
Under the Sun, under the Moon, under the stars,
wherever you are!
Got to have some fun under the Sun, Moon and stars.
Got to get some fun under the Sun, Moon and stars.
Don't wanted on Venus, Saturn nor Uranus.
Don't want it on Pluto, I want it right here on Earth.
Don't want it on Jupiter, Neptune nor on Mercury.
Don't want it on Mars, but under the Sun, Moon and
stars.
Under the Sun, under the Moon, under the stars,
wherever you are!
Got to have some fun under the Sun, Moon and stars.
Let happiness run under the Sun, Moon and stars.
So you didn't understand what I was tryin to tell
you...
Got tell you one more time. Listen!
Under the Sun, under the Moon, under the stars,
wherever you are!
Got to have some fun under the Sun, Moon and stars.
Let happiness run under the Sun, Moon and stars.
Got to find some peace under the Sun, Moon and stars.

Time will tell, time will tell
Time alone will tell
When I was just a little boy
Only six years old
I asked my daddy
What big things my future hold
He said, Son, when you grow up
To be a man,
The facts of life
You will start to understand
Nobody knows
Just what tomorrow may bring
So I want to tell you now,
And listen while I sing
Father said,
Time will tell, time will tell
Time alone will tell
Now I'm a lonely man
Trying to make life on my own
Ever since the day I was born,
I never have a happy home
Just like the river,
I've been running ever since
The day I was born
In that broken down little town
I'm wondering now
Just what my gain will be
Cause it seems to me,
Happiness I'll never see
Mama said,
Time will tell, time will tell
Time alone will tell
What he say now,
Time will tell, time will tell
Time alone will tell
Time keeps on changing
Like the weather and the seasons
For every mistake, Mama said,
There must be a reason
After a storm,
There's got to be a calm
So I think I'll wait a while
And try to wear a smile
Mama said,
Time will tell, time will tell
Time alone will tell
What he say now,
Time will tell I know, I know!
Time will tell said I know
Time alone will tell
One more time now
Time will tell I believe
Time will tell oh yes, I do!

Etty in the room a cry
Mama say she must wipe her eye
Papa say she no fi foolish
Like she never been to school at all

Aunty say she no fi foolish
Like a no time fi him wedding day
It is no wonder
It's a perfect pander
While they were dancing in that bar room last night.
One pound ten for the wedding cake
Plenty bottle of cola wine
All the people them dress up in a white
Fi go eat out Johnson wedding cake
It is no wonder
It's a perfect pander

Stepping out of limbo, stepping alive
Stepping out of limbo, stepping to life
Stepping out of limbo, stepping alive
Stepping out of limbo, we know where we've been
Stepping out of limbo, we've been sitting for too long
Stepping out of limbo, and we're singing a new song
We gonna keep on putting up resistance
And we know that our faith will lead us on
Strong and revolutionary and we will not be contrary
Strong and revolutionary and we will not be contrary
We gonna keep on putting up resistance
And we know that our faith will lead us on
And we know where we are going
Cause we know where we have been
We are going to our father's home
We know what we have seen
We've got love, we've got friendship
We've got life, we've got all
That's all we know that we will go
Stepping out of limbo, took the time and searched the
soul
Stepping out of limbo, now we've got that self-control
We gonna keep on putting up resistance
And we know that our faith will lead us on
Stepping out of limbo, and we'll see the light to glow
Stepping out of limbo, to where crystal waters flow
And we've got on putting up resistance
And we'll see that is faith that lead us on

Sitting here in limbo
But I know it won't be long
Sitting here in limbo
Like a bird without a song
Well, they're
Putting up resistance
But I know that my faith
Will lead me on
Sitting here in limbo
Waiting for the dice to roll
Sitting here in limbo
Got some time to search my soul
Well, they're
Putting up resistance
But I know that my faith
Will lead me on
I don't know where life will lead me
But I know where I've been
I can't say what life will show me
But I know what I've seen
Tried my hand
At love and friendship
But all that is passed and gone
This little boy is moving on
Sitting here in limbo
Waiting for the tide to flow
Sitting here in limbo
Knowing that I have to go
Well, they're
Putting up resistance
But I know that my faith
Will lead me on
I can't say what life will show me
But I know where I've been
I can't say where life will lead me
But I know what I've seen
Tried my hand
At love and friendship
But all that is passed and gone
This little boy is moving on
Sitting here in limbo
Waiting for the tide to flow
Sitting here in limbo
Knowing that I have to go
Well, they're
Putting up resistance
But I know that my faith
Will lead me on
Sitting in limbo, sitting in limbo
Sitting in limbo, sitting in limbo
Sitting in limbo, sitting in limbo
Sitting in limbo, limbo, limbo
Sitting in limbo
Sitting in limbo, limbo, limbo
Limbo, limbo
Sitting in limbo, sitting in limbo
Sitting in limbo, sitting in limbo
Don't know if it's got to be so
Don't know if it's got to be so
Sitting in limbo, sitting here in limbo
But I know we don't belong now
I know we don't belong
Sitting in limbo, limbo
Limbo, limbo
Limbo, limbo
Limbo, limbo

Baby it's been a long time
We've been sitting on drydock
And it seems like all the pathways
Have been blocked
Now the tides have turned
And the rewards we have earned
Bringing us good feeling
Set our hearts a-reeling, baby
Our ship is sailing, there ain't no stopping
Our ship is sailing, yes we are moving
Our ship is sailing, and we are moving
Our ship is sailing, there ain't no stopping
'Til we say so
Hey now
Now let's rock it steady
Since a long time we've been ready
Let nothing detract our attention
Let's take our time
'Cause I'm feeling so fine
When you hold me tight
Everything's all right, darlin'
Our ship is sailing, yes we are moving
Our ship is sailing, there ain't no stopping
Our ship is sailing, let's keep on moving
Our ship is sailing, there ain't no stopping
'Til we say so
Hey hey now
Now with love and affection
We're moving in the right direction
Satisfaction is the key along the way
So let's share the joy
Like a child with a new toy
Baby hold me tight
Everything's all right, darlin'
Our ship is sailing, and we are moving
Our ship is sailing, there ain't now stopping now
Our ship is sailing, yes we are on the go
Our ship is sailing, there ain't no stopping
Let's share the joy (Our ship is sailing)
Like a child with a new toy (Our ship is sailing)
Baby let's take our time (Our ship is sailing)
'Cause I'm feeling so fine

Echoes of reggae comin' through my bedroom wall
Havin' a party up next door but I'm sittin here all alone
Two lovers in the bedroom and the other starts to shout
All I got is this blank stare and that don't carry no clout at all
[Chorus:]Destination unknown
Ruby ruby ruby ruby soho
Destination unknown
Ruby ruby ruby ruby soho
He's singin and she's there to lend a hand
He's seen his name on the marquee but she will never understand
Once again he's leavin' and she's there with a tear in her eye
Embraces with a warm gesture it's time, time to say goodbye
[Chorus]
Ruby's heart ain't beatin cause she knows the feelin' is gone
She's not the only one who knew there's somethin' wrong
Her lover's in the distance as she wipes a tear from her eye
Ruby's fading out, she disappears, it's time, time to say goodbye
[Chorus]Ruby ruby ruby ruby soho
Ruby ruby ruby ruby soho
Ruby ruby ruby ruby soho
Ruby ruby ruby ruby soho
Destination unknown (Ruby ruby ruby ruby soho)

To give and take
Oh, yes, oh, yes, oh, yes, oh, yes, oh, yes, baby
I can give you what I got [What I got, what I got]
Oh, your mind think a lot
I will take just what you got
If you say that's what you got
I know some day no matter what they say
Money will come, money will come our way
In a million billion ways
Zillion ways, no, no
Love is all I have to give
To give and take
Love is all I have to give
To give and take
Love is all I got to give
To give and take
Oh, yes, oh, yes
It's so good when you dub it up, dub it up
‘Cause all I got to give and what I got to give is
blood
I'll give it to you
Love is all I got to give

You know I can't get
I say I can't get
You know I can't get
The love I need
The love I need
Maybe I'm just wasting time
Trying to get a fish on a line
Anyway, I'm a man, so I got to try
Maybe I'm just hard to please
But then again, it's just my needs
Maybe it's just the way that I am high
Because I can't get
No, no, I can't get
You know I can't get
The love I need
The love I need
I know that it's love it takes
To keep this man in me awake
And I find it hard to compromise
There's no mountain hard to climb
When I got the love I need full time
To keep me satisfied and it's just my size
Therefore I can't get
You know I can't get
No, no, I, I can't get
The love I need
The love I need
I don't want no part-time love
I don't want no part-time love
Don't want no part-time love
Don't want no part-time love
Because I can't get
I know I can't get
No, no, I, I can't get
The love I need
The love I need
Don't want no part-time love (The love I need)
And I don't want no part-time love (The love I need)
Don't want no part-time love (The love I need)
Don't want no part-time love (The love I need)
Part time love (The love I need)

Walking down the road
With an old blade in your hand,
Johnny too bad, that's what they say
Walking down the road
With a blade in your waist,
Johnny too bad, Johnny too bad
Don't you play come faking,
You're looking and mistaking,
Too bad
You're hurrying and you're shooting,
You're losing, told you,
You're too bad
Just one of these days,
You're going to make your woman cry,
Ooh, Johnny too bad
One of these days,
You're going to make your woman cry,
'Cause Johnny, you're so bad,
That's what they tell me about you
With you looking and sticking
Switchblade a-picking,
Too bad
Oh I told you, yes you did it,
Don't you, I told you, too bad
That's what they say about you
Walking down the road,
You're going to hear a voice say
Go, Johnny, where you're going to run to,
Come that sweet day.
You may be walking down the road,
You're might hear a voice say
Go, Johnny, where you're going to run to,
Come that sweet day
You might run to the rock for rescue,
You'll find a rock, you'll find a rock there
Run to the rock for rescue,
There will be no rock, be no rock at dawn
Walking down the road,
With a blade in your waist
(Johnny too bad)
Johnny too bad, Johnny too bad
Walking down the road,
With a blade in your, with a blade your waist
You're too bad Johnny, too bad Johnny, too bad Johnny
With your blade a picking, switchblade licking,
Too bad
With you licking and sticking, blade come picking,
Too bad, that's what they say about you
With your blade come licking, licking, sticking,
That's what they say about you
Licking, sticking, too bad
(J-J-J-J-J-J-Johnny)
Johnny go walking
Johnny go talking
Johnny go walking
Johnny go talking
Johnny go walking now
Johnny go talking

Hem hollolo iyo
Hakuna Matata!

When I was a cool young one
(When he was a cool young one)
I worked in the colony, paying my dues
Accepting without question the prevailing views
That a young man's life was one long grind
Diggin' holes, standin' guard till it crossed my mind
I was wrong
All along
All that I needed
Was to have heeded
Hakuna Matata!
What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata!
Ain't no passing craze
It means no worries
For the rest of your days
It's a problem-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata!
When I was a shallow youth
(When he was a shallow youth)
Cool calm reflection
I was never that good
I was a pawn in the game, I saw no trees for the wood
My future stretched behind me
I was over the hill
I put my best foot forward
But the other stood still
Take my word
I have heard
All that I needed
Was to have heeded
Hakuna Matata!
What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata!
Ain't no passing craze
It means no worries
For the rest of your days
It's a problem-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata!
Hem hollolo iyo
Hakuna Matata!
Hem may'babo
Hakuna Matata!
I hope we have conveyed
You don't have to bust a gut in the sun
It's much cooler in the shade
Some say it's just a waste of time
But they don't realize
That view is nothing but a crime
We are creatures worldly wise
Hakuna Matata!
What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata!
Ain't no passing craze
It means no worries
For the rest of your days
It's a problem-free philosophy

Big John. Big John.
Every morning at the mine you could see him arrive.
He stood six-foot-six and weighed twofortyfive.
King of broad at the shoulder
at naroow at the hip
and everybody knew you did'nt give no lip to Big John.
Somebody seemed to know where John called home.
He just drifted into town and stayed all alone.
He did'nt say much a kind a quiet and shy
and if you spoke at all
you just said "hi" to Big John.
Big John. Big John. Big John.
Big Bad John.
Nobody said he came from New Orleans
where he got in a fight over a Cajun Queen
and a crashing blow from a huge right hand
sent a Louisiana fellow to the promised land. Big John.
Big John. Big John. Big John.
Big John.
Then came the day at the bottom of the mine
when a timber cracked and the men started craying.
Miners were praying and hearts beat fast
and everybody thought that they'd breathed their last 'cept John.
Through the dust and smoke of this man made hell
walked a giant of a man that the miners knew well.
Grabbed a sagging timber and gave out with a grown
and like a giant oak tree
just stood there alone. Big John.
Big John. Big John. Big John.
Big John.
And with all of his strength
he gave a mighty shove;
then a miner yelled out
there's a light up above!
And twenty men scrambled from a would be grave
and now there's only one left down there to save
Big John.
With jacks and timbers they started back down
then came that rumble way down in the ground
and smoke and gas belched out of that mine
everybody knew
it was the end of the line for for Big John.
Big John. Big John. Big John.
Big Bad John.
Now they never reopened that worthless pit
they just placed a marble stand in front of it;
These few words are written on that stand:
At the bottom of this mine lies a big
big man; Big John.
Big John. Big John.
Big Bad John.
Big John. Big John. ...

Goodbye yesterday, welcome today
I've been waiting for a long, long time
Goodbye yesterday, welcome today

Good to see you here, how you doin'?

Dreams that saw me through a rainy day
So goodbye yesterday, welcome today

Goodbye yesterday, welcome today

And my gamble hasn't been in vain

Do our thing and then go to hell

Goodbye yesterday, welcome today

Hey, hey, hey...
Give the people what they want
Well, it's been said before, the world is a stage
A different performance with every age.
Open the history book to any old page
Bring on the lions and open the cage.
Give the people what they want
You gotta give the people what they want
The more they get, the more they need
And every time they get harder and harder to please
The roman promoters really did things right.
They needed a show that would clearly excite.
The attendance was sparse so they put on a fight
Threw the christians to the lions, sold out every night
Give the people what they want
You gotta give the people what they want
The more they get, the more they need
And every time they get harder and harder to please
Give em lots of sex, perversion and rape
Give em lots of violence, and plenty to hate
Give the people what they want
Give the people what they want
When olswald shot kennedy, he was insane
But still we watch the re-runs again and again
We all sit glued while the killer takes aim
Hey mom, there goes a piece of the presidents brain!
Give the people what they want
You gotta give the people what they want
Blow out your brains, and do it right
Make sure it's prime time and on a saturday night.
You gotta give the people what they want
You gotta give the people what they want
Give the people what they want
Give the people what they want

Famous quotes by Jimmy Cliff:

"If you go out to Hollywood you'll find a lot of fantastic plastic people there in the business and a lot of people in life generally. They find it so hard to be themselves that they have to be plastic."

"Now you can manufacture just about what you want and after just a little time the artist is forgotten and gone."

"It's phase we're going through. Eventually, what is real will be sought after again."

"It was the vehicle that propelled me to international stardom. I was known as a singer songwriter before that, but people did not know me as an actor. It showed the world where the music I contributed to create was coming from. It opened the gates for Jamaican music, internationally."

"[Peter, a muscle-bound 25-year-old Nigerian with knockout power but very little finesse, entered the ring to the strains of] The Harder They Come, ... the harder they come, the harder they fall, one and all."

"Many Rivers to Cross"

"So as sure as the sun will shine,."

"I've abused myself a lot over the years. But my voice is still intact - really, it's better."

"People in the Hall of Fame tend to clap their hands and say, 'OK, I've done it all,' but for me, it was a new beginning."

"I have not become the artist I believe I am. I want to become a stadium act. I'm not done at all."

"People might say, 'Jimmy Cliff, you've done a lot, achieved a lot. What more can you want?'"
