Forget your troubles and dance


Bob Marley and The Wailers – Them Belly Full (But We Hungry)

Them belly full but we hungry
A hungry mob is an angry mob
A rain a-fall but the dirt, it tough
A pot a-cook but the food no ‘nough

We’re gonna dance to Jah music, dance
We’re gonna dance to Jah music, dance

Forget your sorrows and dance
Forget your troubles and dance
Forget your sickness and dance
Forget your weakness and dance, I say

Cost of livin’ gets so high
The rich and poor they start to cry
And now the weak must get strong, they say
Oh, what a tribulation, saying

My belly full but me hungry
A hungry mob is an angry mob
A rain a-fall but the dirt it tough
A pot a-cook but the food no ‘nough

We’re gonna chuck to Jah music, we’re chuckin’ lord
Hey-hey, we’re chuckin’ to Jah music, we’re chuckin’

Ooh, my belly full but me hungry
A hungry mob is an angry mob
A rain a-fall but the dirt it tough
A pot a cook but the food no ‘nough

Rain a-fall (dirt it tough)
And pot a-cook (food no ‘nough)

And then hungry man (angry mob)
I say a hungry man (angry man)
Lord, a hungry mob (angry man)
And then hungry mob (angry mob)

I say a hungry mob (angry man)
And the rain a-fall (dirt it tough)
And a-uh, ah (food no ‘nough)
And you da cook (food no ‘nough)
Lord, lord, lord, lord, (food no ‘nough)

Brrrr-bap!
Lordy, lordy
Yeah, yeah
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Na, na

I say a hungry mob is a (angry mob)
Lord, a hungry mob is a (angry mob)
And them hungry mob (angry mob)
I said rain a-fall (dirt it tough)
And then the pot to cook (food no ‘nough)
I say the pot to cook (food no ‘nough) oh, oh (angry mob)
