Marcus Garvey

Bag O' Wire and Mother Muschett sold Marcus Garvey

Bag O' Wire and Mother Muschett sold Marcus Garvey

Dem never love, never love, never love poor Marcus

Dem never love, never love, never love poor Marcus

Him own brethren sell him fi rice an' peas

Dem give 'way, dem give 'way, dem give 'way fi rice an' peas

Dem give 'way like how Judas give 'way Christ

And they didn't know there'll be time like this

And now the human race is in such a squeeze

Men like Bag O' Wire should be burn in fire-fire

And woman like Mother Muschett should be stoned like Jezebel

Dem never love, never love, never love poor Marcus

Dem give 'way, dem give 'way, dem give 'way fi rice an' peas

It was she an' Bag O' Wire who gave away Garvey

And that's why they are nowhere around today

Dem never love, never love, never love poor Marcus

Dem give 'way, dem give 'way, dem give 'way fi rice an' peas

Bag O' Wire an' Mother Muschett sold Marcus Garvey

Dem give 'way, dem give 'way, dem give 'way fi rice an' peas

Bag O' Wire and Mother Muschett sold Marcus Garvey

Dem give 'way, dem give 'way, dem give 'way fi rice an' peas

Men like Bag O' Wire should be burn in fire-fire

An' woman like Mother Muschett should be stoned like Jezebel

Dem never love, never love, never love poor Marcus

Dem give 'way, dem give 'way, dem give 'way fi rice an' peas

Mother Muschett an' Bag O' Wire end up livin' nowhere

Bag O' Wire close, was torn off like the stars in the sky

Dem never love, never love, never love poor Marcus

Dem give 'way, dem give 'way, dem give 'way fi rice an' peas

Poor Marcus Garvey

Dem never love, never love, never love poor Marcus

Poor Marcus Garvey

Dem give 'way, dem give 'way, dem give 'way fi rice an' peas
