Hear what me tell you
|
Hear what me say hey
|
No jah forsake me not
|
This child of Israel feel the pain
|
He feels the pangs of hunger too
|
creeping to his stomach
|
Oh as inflation rises to the sky-high
|
Faster and faster higher and higher
|
Faster and faster higher and higher
|
Them crises multiply
|
Every day the food supply decreasing
|
While the population is increasing
|
Where are they going to find
|
A way to serve mankind
|
Every day the energy yes they say
|
that it declines
|
Where are they going to find
|
A way to serve mankind
|
No jah forsake me not
|
This child of Israel feel the pain
|
He feels the pangs of hunger still
|
creeping to his stomach
|
Now as the happy young warriors they grow
|
Taller and taller wiser and stronger
|
Taller and taller wiser and stronger
|
they grow now
|
And they just laugh off misery
|
and they just laugh off hunger
|
Because the fruit of their labour
|
Jah tell them they must see see see
|
Wonder will I wonder will I not going to
|
Wonder will I wonder will I not going to
|
Wonder will I wonder will I not going to
|
Wonder will I wonder will I not going to
|
Oh as the happy young warriors yes they grow
|
Taller and taller stronger and wiser
|
Taller and taller stronger and wiser they grow
|
ina this ya Babylon
|
Where are they going'to find
|
A way to serve mankind
|
No Jah forsake me not this child of Israel feel the pain
|
He feels the pangs of hunger too creeping to his stomach
|
No Jah forsake me not
|
I trod through the streets of Babylon
|
And I fear not though I walk in the shadow of the wicked dem
|
Jah will guide and protect I still so I can trod on
|
No Jah forsake me not
|
Some men and people who try to crucify
|
Selassie I and them going pay the price
|
