Ziggy Marley Lyrics

Hand to Mouth Lyrics
Power to the workers

More power

Power to the workers

We need more power

Power to the workers

Got to have more power

Power to the workers

We need more power



Free zone workers you working hard everyday

But all the work you do don't get enough pay

I mad I still don't know why I still don't know why

Is minimum wage for your sufferation have no more toleration



Hand to mouth can't work

Hand to mouth can't work

Hand to mouth business no it can't work

[cho]

School teachers you working hard educatring

But all the work you do they take you for a play thing

I mad I still don't know why I still don't know why

Is little bit a pay for your contribution and you mean so much to the nation

[cho]

Me say me naah get enough good weh day

All thema work is like them naah get no pay

Naah get enough food from weh day

All the work we work is like we naah get no pay

Watching everything go up in inflation

Food price go up and man pay a go down

Ask some a them

Them telling short long

But in a corner we wings and a jam

Ragga ragga a watch the notion

Say we naah get no good food from weh day

Naah sow no good seed from weh day

Naah sow no good seed from weh day

Naah get enough food weh day

Our nurses saving lives everyday

But all the lives you save you don't get enough pay



I mad I still don't know why

I still don't know why

Is little bit a pay for your life savings

what a grave they're digging

[cho]

Now our farmers them digging hard every day

But all the food they grow import them a say

That make me mad that make me mad mad mad mad

Mad mad mad mad



Is little bit a pay for your mama too and

your sister got to shop for two

Oh civil servants you working hard everyday and

you sweating out for your pay

but I man still don't know why



Still don't know why is little bit

a pay everyday what you got to take away

Woy! woy! woy! woy! woy!

[cho]

Me say me naah get enough good from weh day

all the talk we talk is like we naah

Naah get no good yood from weh day all the bawl we bawl

say them no hear wha we a say

Workers a the backbone a the whole island

don't treat them right is total confusion

Can't go no doctor for no medication

School but no teacher no education

Pay more dollars to the foundation

Naah get enough pay from weh day musician a suffer but a play

same way engineer a bawl how him pay too small

Can't build him house with no concrete wall

Bass man a cry bout him can't get string

Have the contacts and can't bring them in raggamuffin dj and sing



Lord naah get enough good from weh day

all the talk we talk is like we naah Lord

Naah get no good yood from weh day

all the bawl we bawl say them no hear wha we a say

Watching everything go up in inflation

Food price go up and man pay a god down

Some a them

Them telling short

Long

Ragga ragga deh pon the version

Ziggy zaggy a watch the movements
