Lyrics
[Chorus]
Them belly full, but we hungry
A hungry mob is a angry mob
A-rain a-fall, but the dutty tough
A yut a yook, but yood nah nuff
You're going to dance to Jah music, dance
We're going to dance to Jah music, dance, oh-ooh
[Verse 1]
Forget your troubles and dance
Forget your sorrows and dance
Forget your sickness and dance
Forget your weakness and dance
Cost of living gets so high
Rich and poor, they start to cry
Now the weak must get strong
They say, "Oh, what a tribulation"
[Chorus]
Them belly full, but we hungry
A hungry mob is a angry mob
A-rain a-fall, but the dutty tough
A pot a yook, but yood nah nuff
We're going to chuck to Jah music, chuckin'
Aye, we're chuckin' to Jah music, we're chuckin', ooh
[Outro]
A belly full, but them hungry
A hungry mob is a angry mob
A-rain a-fall, but the dutty tough
A pot a-cook, but the food nah nuff
A hungry man is a angry man
A-rain a-fall, but the dutty tough
A pot a yook but yood na nuff
A-rain a-fall, but the dutty tough
A pot a-cook, but yood na nuff
A hungry mob is a angry mob
