Lyrics

Hey rich man, won't you please give up? Tell me where you get it! Hey rich man, won't you please give up? Tell me where you get it! The river of gold, is flowing in Ethiopia My fore mothers and fathers too They're sons and daughters of the same side Putting them, you drive them a-way They know how to fe-give me Tell me now, hey rich man Tell me where you get it! How come you store basket so full, and mine Tell me where you get it! Hey Jacob upstairs, he's a been a rest Jacob upstairs, while, he's a on a tell-I (seller?) Tell me now, won't you drop an' give the poor a rest Tell me where you get it! Took, took and give the poor some food Tell me where you get it! (.) Jacob upstairs, he's a been a rest Jacob upstairs, while, he's a on a tell-I (seller?) Tell me now, is that really fair? Tell me where you get it! Rastafari investigating this condition Tell me where you get it! Draw up some more and give the poor a chance Tell me where you get it! Sister Mary, poor thing dem pam police Den I dem beat me that you through to your dog Tell me where you get it! Poor thing Sister Mary she, have nothing to eat Ha, she have got to eat as I defended (?) Burglar through the night now Tell me now, hey rich man Tell me where you get it! Get up, get up and turn and do good, woohooo Tell me where you get it! Jah send I as messenger to warn you Tell me where you get it! Jacob upstairs, he's a been a rest (look at Ja(co)b) Jacob upstairs, while, he's a on a tell-I (?) Tell me now, rich man won't you please give up Tell me where you get it! Dop di dop, gidi bop dop now Tell me where you get it! A why, you a (have) a belly full now (?) Tell me where you get it! Ease up in that room And give her a chance in the back room Tell me where you get it! Some a go sleep at night to while their bed so soft Tell me where you get it! Some defending, while some a defended Tell me where you get it!
