Whoa ooy, ooy - aah, aah aye
Equal right and justice
We want to see it whoy ooy
Jah people walk through the valley of the shadow of life
All through the agony of Babylon, we fear no evil
Poor. Jah people
We have been hit, stoned and refused
Kicked out on the street so many, many times
Poor. Jah people
Jah is not satisfied with what is going on
He need to see some more equal rights and justice turn up
Poor. Jah people
We have never been given a chance even one time
To try and control our own little lives
Poor. Jah people, wooy, wooy
For Jah know it all
Jah seal it and hol' and control it
Poor. Jah people
Equal rights and justice stand for all
But some take it aside away and slowly crawl
Poor. brrrr, Jah people
