We can't afford to pay the landlord's moneyAin't got no phone and the powers not runningLooking for work but it's just not comingAnd it's just not funny, children got to eat somethingFriday night, streets alight, and I'm not drinkingAll of my friends are talking, got me thinkingOut of the melancholy I'd been sinking'Cause the band is playing and my girlfriend's winkingSo lay down all your troubles and your dramas at the dance hall tonightAnd empty all your burdens and your problems at the dance hall tonightI tell you brother, Jah don't owe me nothingI live my life trying to build me somethingYou see the slick cats and the P they're puffingGood money they're running, but the good not comingThe pale skin I got, the song I'm singingWhether your poor or not the love you bringingWelfare state raised me but I'm not clingingTo the prison system, no tonight I'm winningSo lay down all your troubles and your dramas at the dance hall tonightAnd empty all your burdens and your problems at the dance hall tonightAnd pray for all the blessings and the glory 'cause we found Jah tonightAnd shout out to Mt Zion 'cause were ready, and we found love tonightLetras de cancionesI don't mind working hard to make a livingFor everything I've got the praise I've givenBut lust for money no I've never been drivenYeah, you play Bob Marley but you just don't listenThe greedy politicians lower your taxesTalk about poverty while she relaxesWho out there's still voting for all these fascists?When the system crashes you can kiss their ashesAnd lay down all your troubles and your dramas at the dance hall tonightAnd empty all your burdens and your problems at the dance hall tonightAnd pray for all the blessings and the glory, we found Jah tonightAnd shout out to Mt Zion 'cause were ready and we found love tonight From Letras Mania
