If I'm not allowed to talk about what I see
But then again, Bible seh |

Having nothing to eat on Christmas Eve
Not even a pair of shoes on mi feet
And then come di worst time
When I and I never have any time
And we have to play outside
I an' mi little sister
When we in dire hungry days
Everybody haffi meet hungry days
Sometimes of life every day
Hey yeah
So cry blood,
Motherless children, cry blood... |
