Freddie McGregor - We Got Love
Work is the only alternative
For us to live
Work, work, work, and that's not all
And Friday the pay is so small
Is this the only way for us to survive?
When mama was poor, papa for sure
Ain't got no money; but we got love
Mama was poor, papa for sure
Ain't got no money; but we got love
When father worked for me when I was small
Still couldn't make enough for all
It was sure a poor way to be, yes
Was no shame, but a life of sorrow
Sometimes that angry shall scream as horror [?]
That still oppress us all
When mama was poor, papa for sure
Ain't got no money; but we got love
Mama was poor, papa for sure
Ain't got no money; but we got love
(..)
Silver and gold
We had none
But this life of living, sure wasn't fun
Papa would look at my mama, by his side
And say: "Mama don't you give up,
Jah will provide."
When mama was poor, papa for sure
Ain't got no money; but we got love..
