"don't worry just live you life day by day

keep on laughin' and sing likkle boy

life is a game we all must enjoy"



don't care about di passin' of time

evry second I live is divine,

like me dear old papa used to say

"dis world's an illusion come and play!"

keep on laughin' and sing likkle boy

life is a game we all must enjoy"

So one more day, another night
One more year without you
God I'm so blue, honey I miss you
So one more day, another night
One more year without you
God I'm so blue, don't know how old are you...


I mus' say if I had de money
I could show you a better day
but tings dem not so easy today
ain't no fun inna di city
from bad to worse everyday
God I polish shoes, man I beg fi money
tings dem so hard pon me!




ten years I livin' on de streets
still don't know how to make ends meet
tell me what do you learn at school
do your new daddy tink I'm a fool?
I'm dyin' to hear from you
I still polish shoes and still beg fi money
tings dem so hard pon me!

Rushden road Margarita danced
"blow Don D blow" she said like inna trance
she was de queen of de rumba beat
he was de troubled man of de ska beat.
On new year's eve inna Johnsontown
de Skatalites played from dusk till dawn
wrong medication plus depression
blood on de floor whappened troubled Don?

Stabbed in di chest convicted murderer
she met her death when she met her lover
"open di door fi me open Junie!"
di clock stroke four...end of di story.
Inna Bellevue, home of lunatics,
di doctor kicked Don Cosmic so sick
di musical prophet sowed de seeds
a precious sound's now rulin' de streets
