Monkey Go work
Baboon go chop

You for leave am for God ohh

I've seen the things way happen to the people way de work more
When the sun shines
The rain pours ohhh
People way wish to see chop on me

I've seen the things way happen to the people way de work more
When the sun shines

People way wish to see chop on me

This side
Seen how it feels to be on your toes
Weekdays our shops get closed
Potholes and traffic
Mud and our roads on hold

This side
Whose gone be great mehn you'll never know
Your daily bread might not be your own
Might not be your own
