Lyrics Cry Blood - Charlie Chaplin

Oh, blessed are the meek cah they shall inherit the earth
Blessed are they that mourn cah they shall be comforted
Selassie I!
Dread
Before one of I and I words shall pass, hey
Zion and Earth shall pass away
Rrrrrepeat it
According to your work is how you get paid
God Almighty
Jah come fi save we, yet still Him we betrayed
But cry blood, motherless children, cry blood
But by blood, all Ethiopians bawl blood
Cry blood, motherless children, cry blood
Say, by blood, all Ethiopians bawl blood
Give it dem too
Dem use and abuse, confuse, then rejec'
Yet still we a cut off one another neck
Rrrrrepeat it
True we complexion no get no respect
Dread!
And now I hear the Declaration a Human Rights dem reject
But cry blood, motherless children, cry blood
Say by blood, all Ethiopians bawl blood
Say cry blood, motherless children, cry blood
By blood, all Ethiopians bawl blood
Welll, hear me now
No Rasta picking, you no get inna here
Hey!
An' as a Rastaman, I and I no fi swear
I know what kind of man I would have been
If I'm not allowed to talk about what I see
But then again, Bible say
Let yea be yea and nay be nay
Cah Jah Jah never built the world inna one day
Jah Jah built everything inna different way
Him make human beings fi have children and him??
So cry blood, motherless children, cry blood
Bawl blood, all Ethiopians bawl blood
Jah!
Cry blood, motherless children, cry blood
By blood, all Ethiopians bawl blood
What I'm ask him to, help me Lord
Cumbaya
I'm asking him to help me tonight
Cumbaya
I'm asking him to help me, Jah
Cumbaya
O Lord, Cumbaya
O Lord, Cumbaya
So cry blood, motherless children, cry blood
Say by blood, all Ethiopians bawl blood
Cry blood, motherless children, cry blood
Bawl blood, all Ethiopians bawl blood
Well, hear this
I can remember when I was a little boy
Have nothing to eat... on Christmas Eve
Not even a pair of shoes on my feet
And then come the worst time
When I and I never have any time
And we have to play outside
I and me little sister
When we in dire, hungry days
Everybody haffi meet hungry days
Sometimes your life, hungry days...
So cry blood, motherless children, cry blood...
