More Money

Yeah man
You done know what the people them a say already
You can't fall and talk about the years of darkness
You a hear me?

More money a wha' everybody waan now
A buy lotto and a wait fi the draw now
Poor granny have her hand pon her jaw now
Old age and she can't lift a straw now
Belly hungry, and man feel raw now
Still a keep the faith 'cause rude bwoy nah bow
A whole a medicine me take a one draw now
See it deh yah how me a run from the law now

Why worry when you know you can pray?
A only massa God can help you out anyway
This yah crisis wha' we a face everyday
A work all we life and nah get no pay
Have a one fowl and the fowl nah lay
Dem thief me ten head a cow, true dem go stray
The 20 dollar ticket me a go buy, start play
Big money, jackpot, me haffi win it one day
'Cause...

More money a wha' everybody waan now
A buy lotto and a wait fi the draw now
Poor granny have her hand pon her jaw now
Old age and she can't lift a straw now
Belly hungry, and man feel raw now
Still a keep the faith 'cause rude bwoy nah bow
A whole a medicine me take a one draw now
See it deh yah how me haffi run from the law now
