Each and everyone a shout hip hip hooray

Survival is the program now,

Jah must come my way

Now you might a wonder why I feef so merry

But I fe me country and me feel irie

So we ha fe dance a yard before we dance abroad

Naw follow foolish people talk 'bout times so hard '

No bother fret no time to skylark

Who laugh last said a him have de laugh

Every thing have it's season

Each and every thing have it's time

Production is the key to survival, universally

Everyone a got them jubilee

Come mek we dance a yard before we dance abroad

Naw follow foolish people talk 'bout times so hard

No bother clash, no time to skylark

Who laugh last said a him have de laugh



After all that's said and done

Still there is battle to be won

We ha fe practice a yard, first

Before we come out abroad, sir

We have to kick before me walk, me Lord

No time to skylark a yard

Anywhere you come from you're welcome

Come mek we dance a yard before we dance abroad

Naw follow foolish people talk 'bout times so hard

No bother clash, no time to skylark

Who laugh last said a him ha fe laugh

Mek we dance a yard before we dance abroad

Don't follow foolish people talk 'bout times so hard

No bother clash, no time to skylark

Who laugh last said a him have de laugh



Mek we dance a yard before we dance abroad...
