And I went down to Spanish Town
To look for a friend of mine
Who's called Seminaya
Then we started to have a little talk
About everything
About the situation
And this is what he said
He told me, “Famine, famine, famine
Famine on the land
Because the cost of living
Is getting so high, high, high”
It's really so high, high, high
Sky high
Because the cost of living
Is getting so high, high, high
So I went down to Old Harbour
To look for my brother John
To ask him how is life
And things and things and things
Oh, we started to have a little talk
About everything
About the situation
And this is what he said
He told me, “Famine, famine, famine
Famine's on the land
Because the cost of living
Is getting so high, high, high”
It's really so high, high, high
Sky high
Because the cost of living
Is getting so high, high, high
So I went down to Clarendon
To look for my family
To a little street called Treadlight
Is where I was born
Oh, and we started to have a little talk
Together, together
About the situation
And this is what they said
They told me, “Famine, famine, famine
Famine on the land
Because the cost of living
Is getting so high, high, high”
It's really so high, high, high
Sky high
'Cause the cost of living
Is getting so high, high, high
Well, I wake up early one morning And I went down to Spanish Town To look for a friend of mine Who's called Seminaya Then we started to have a little talk About everything About the situation And this is what he said He told me, “Famine, famine, famine Famine on the land Because the cost of living Is getting so high, high, high” It's really so high, high, high Sky high Because the cost of living Is getting so high, high, high So I went down to Old Harbour To look for my brother John To ask him how is life And things and things and things Oh, we started to have a little talk About everything About the situation And this is what he said He told me, “Famine, famine, famine Famine's on the land Because the cost of living Is getting so high, high, high” It's really so high, high, high Sky high Because the cost of living Is getting so high, high, high So I went down to Clarendon To look for my family To a little street called Treadlight Is where I was born Oh, and we started to have a little talk Together, together About the situation And this is what they said They told me, “Famine, famine, famine Famine on the land Because the cost of living Is getting so high, high, high” It's really so high, high, high Sky high 'Cause the cost of living Is getting so high, high, high Explain Request ×
