Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The rich man poor man beggar man thief
Everyone claim that them are the chief
The rich man buy the poor man's life
The poor man take away the beggar man's wife
[Verse 2]
Don't cry, my brothers
Don't cry, my sisters
[Verse 3]
These tears won't change the situation
It's just a form, a form of reaction
If you step on fire, fire burn you
You play with puppy, puppy lick your mouth
So stand up strong, you got to know where you belong
Say the weak ones now will soon become strong, yeah
[Verse 4]
Everything will soon be okay
As soon as the war is over
Jah children will be free to come over
Singing and dancing ready to take over
Have some faith
Have a little faith
[Verse 5]
Hey, everything will soon be okay
As soon as the war is over
Jah children will be free to come over
Singing and dancing, ready to take over
Have some faith
Have a little faith
[Verse 6]
The rich man poor man beggar man thief
Everyone claim that them are the chief
The rich man buy the poor man's life
The poor man take away the beggar man's wife
[Verse 7]
Don't cry, my brothers
Don't cry, my sisters
[Verse 8]
These tears won't change the situation
It's just a form, a form of reaction
Tell you if you step on fire, fire burn you
You play with puppy, puppy lick your mouth
So stand up strong, you got to know where you belong
Said the weak ones now will soon become strong
[Verse 9]
Don't cry, don't cry
Don't cry, don't cry
[Verse 10]
Your tears won't change the situation
It's just a form, a form of reaction
Tel you if you step on fire, fire burn you
Play with puppy, puppy lick your mouth
So stand up strong, you got to know where you belong
Said the weak ones now will soon become strong
[Verse 11]
The rich man poor man beggar man thief
Everyone claim that them are the chief
The rich man buy the poor man's life
The poor man take away the beggar man's wife
[Verse 12]
Don't cry, don't cry
Don't cry, don't cry
