Stephen Marley, Buju Banton - Poor Old Man lyrics
[Stephen Marley, Buju Banton - Poor Old Man lyrics]
Say, there were lonely a
Man even than before
Shooba, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
There was once an old man
Who lived all alone
All through out his life
No happiness have he had known
Now with tears in his eyes
He watches as folks passes by
Walking hand in hand with love
Walking hand in hand with love
Now said, I read a letter, poor old woman say
Trying to express how much she needed help
Her loneliness, no sweet caress
No tenderness, she needed some help
Babe, young, the elderly they all want love
Good loviduby mi say kiss and hug
That fill up the cup
Mi say dat full di the mug
Overflow to the brim, mi say, like water jug
Woman dem a bubble up
Need a little cuddle up
Nah tek nuh fubble up, hardcore a double up
Anywhere we go dancehall a fi nice up
When this one play feel it, yeah
It's the order of the day
You can't deny it, no way
When dis one play, you feel it, yeah
When will they meet? Poor old woman say
When will they greet? Poor old woman say
Her loneliness is the message that she sends
And all she need is one good faithfull friend
That will make her smile again
Throughout her life there is
Nothing but misery
Upstairs and downstairs
Roller coaster tragedy
All kind a things
Mi say none she never fancy
When yu chek it out, it was all topsy turvey
Gwan Buju Banton yu pattern is ever irie
Anywhere you go dem call yu Mr. Mark Myrie
And when they're having problems
They think that we can solve them
Who they're having problems
They think that we can solve them
She cried, help me please, poor old woman say
Some company, poor old woman say
In sympathy, she asked me for some help
To find some one to share her loneliness
She said, she can't go on like this
There was once an old man
Who lived all alone
All through out his life
No happiness have he had known
Now with tears in his eyes
He watches as folks passes by
Walking hand in hand with love
Walking hand in hand with love
Such loneliness, poor old woman say
Nah, can't forget, poor old woman say
In sympathy, she asked me for some help
To find some one to share her loneliness
She said
She needs something better than this
Man even than before
Shooba, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
There was once an old man
Who lived all alone
All through out his life
No happiness have he had known
Now with tears in his eyes
He watches as folks passes by
Walking hand in hand with love
Walking hand in hand with love
Now said, I read a letter, poor old woman say
Trying to express how much she needed help
Her loneliness, no sweet caress
No tenderness, she needed some help
Babe, young, the elderly they all want love
