Please Jah Jah

(album: Prison Oval Rock - 1985)

Hey, woah-oh-oy
Yeah-ey, woah-oy

I'm working all day, sir, in the burning sun
Yes, to achieve some future, every day of my life
But when Friday come, sir, I didn't get no pay
I go to jail the same day, I didn't get no pay

Oh, please doctor, I beg you check out mi back, sir
Please doctor, me have a pain in a mi side, sir

I'm working all day say, sir
As a contractor
And when Friday come, sir
I only get the nail

Please, Jah Jah, I beg you check out the case
Please, Jah Jah, I beg you check out the case

Working all day as a contractor
And when Friday come, sir, I didn't get no pay
I go to jail the same day, I didn't get no pay
Please, Jah Jah

Woah-oh-oy, woah-oh-oy
Woah-oh-oy, woah-oh-oy

Working all day, sir
In the burning sun
What do to me to do to me
So just give it to me

Please, Jah Jah, I beg you check out this case, sir
Please, Jah Jah, I'm not getting my rights, sir

I'm working all day, ya
In the burning sun
And when Friday come, sir, I only get them day
I go to jail the same day, I didn't get no pay

Please, Jah Jah, I have a pain in a mi back, sir
Please, doctor, me have a cut across mi head, sir
Oh-oy, woah-oh-oy, woah-oh-oy

I'm walking down the road, sir
As a contractor
And when Friday come, sir
I can't throw my pay

Please, Jah Jah
