Why, why, why, oh yea now, must the black man strain?
Why people, must he sweat and strain?

He toil each day from dawn till dusk (yes how true)
trying to achieve (yes how true) the little he can. (we know how true)
But just can't make it (how really true) I wonder what's wrong? (we know
how
true) What's wrong now (how really true) tell me what's wrong.

Look, oh Lord, they brought us down here
Have us in bondage, right through these years
Fussing and fighting, among ourselves
Nothing to achieve this way, it's worser than hell, I say

Get up and fight for your rights my brothers
Get up and fight for your rights my sisters

We walk, we walk fe forward on a yard
We walk, we walk fe forward on a yard

I call upon the leaders of this time
To send the children, oh, now in this time
I call upon the head of society
To free the children now of captivity

Know Jah today and not tomorrow
Know Jah today and there'll be no sorrow
Tomorrow will be too late
And you'll be knockin' on the gate
So don't, don't let this chance pass you by
You don't, don't know what lies ahead
Tomorrow will be too late
And you'll be knockin' on the gate

I wouldn't like to be there, no
I wouldn't like to be, no
Inna this number
It's a familiar number (kind of people)
Inna this number
It's a familiar number (kind of people)

Eight million careless Ethiopians

There is a land far, far away
Where there's no night, there's only day
Look into the book of life and you will see
That there's a land far, far away
That there's a land far, far away.

The King of Kings and the Lord of Lords
Sits upon his throne and He rules us all

People, people can't you see and know
What is really going on?
It's that same old thing, it's, it's nothing new
More than 2,000 years ago
The Good Lord send me from Zion
The Good Lord, you send me down
The Good Lord send me from Zion
The Good Lord, you send me down

Yes, my friend
This is not the end
You've got life to live, my friend
And not life to give
Stop blaming yourself
And find someone else

I'm not the only fool
