Sufferin' In The Land - Jimmy Cliff

Da-da-dai-dai, da-da-dai, da-da-dai …

Suffering in the land

It is plain to see we’re in a terrible situation

Sufferin’in the land

Nearly half of the world on the verge of starvation

Sufferin’in the land

And the children are crying for more education

Sufferin’in the land

Let’s singin'

Da-da-dai-dai …

Suffering in the land

The rich get richer and the poor get poorer

Sufferin’in the land

Everything’s gettin’higher and the time gettin’tougher

Sufferin’in the land

They’re making guns and bombs to set the world on fire

Sufferin’in the land

I’m singin'

Da-da-dai-dai …

Suffering in the land, Lord

Da-da-dai-dai …

Suffering in the land

from 'Wonderful World, Beautiful People'(1970)
