I see Johnny with his head hanging down Wondering how many schillings left in that pound Cost of living it is rising so high Dollar see that have heart attack and die
Bills and budgets are waiting Finance ministers anticipating Unemployment is rising And I hear my people, they're crying
The day the dollar die Things are gonna be better The day the dollar die No more corruption The day the dollar die People will respect eachother The day the dollar die
Tell me brother Is there something I can do Don't you let frustrations make you blue
Time is hard And I know that is true But if you pick yourself up That's all you've got to do
Things can be much better If we can come together Long time we been divided And it's time we be inited
The day the dollar die Gonna be better The day the dollar die I won't need no pockets The day the dollar die Don't have to be frettin' The day the dollar die
Now I see you standing on your feet And you can also make two ends meet Never you let life problems get you down There is always a solution to be found
Bills and budgets are mourning Finance ministers groaning Unemployment is rising And I hear my people crying from the ghetto
The day the dollar die It's gonna be nice The day the dollar die Just you wait and see The day this here dollar die There be no more inflation The day the dollar die
I say the day Danny dollar die The day Sammy dollar die We will love eachother I said the day this a dollar die Fight some inflation
A clear conscience fears no accusation - proverb from Sierra Leone
Many thanks for this thought-provoking input. Peter Tosh happened to be one of those great social teachers buried in music, just as Bob Marley was. Though dead, Peter Tosh by far was able to project the universal Credit Crunch and global financial crises as we know it today. Yes, "the Day the Dollar die" humans become their own masters. What a brilliant mind cast!
