One Day Lyrics

One Day lyrics

-P. Barrett-

 

I say don't hang yourself with no rope

Have faith and continue live up in hope

Chorus:

Everybody bawling, one day, one day

Everybody hoping somehow, someway

Everybody bawling one day, one day

Everybody hoping somehow, someway

You might not be able to buy a house

Upon the hillside

Find it difficult just to

Purchase a ride

But you can live Pon the flat

Take a bus and still survive

All you got to do is

Get yourself organized

'Cause the wickedest thing

Is when you don't have hope

And you full of despair

And you receive and get deceive

And you just don't believe

That you can reach somewhere

 

Chorus

 

'Cause there is ups and down and turn around

In everybody life

But you must learn and stay firm

And keep you goal in sight

Get up stand up and live up

And fight with all your might

And one day one day me say

Your future will bright

Because who Jah Jah bless I must confess

 

Say no guy can cuss

And mi granny always say

Grandson, one day you must pass the worse

Chorus

You must always be optimistic

Inna you thought

Check say the future

A go better than the past

Anything you do you do it

Straight from the heart

And tek weh you get

Till you get weh you want

Because the strain and the pain

And economical gain me know you can't keep up

Mi know it rough mi know it tough

But you still must stand up

Mi know it hot but hush

 

Chorus

 

You might get up every day

And see things a run

And question yourself say

How you no get none

But, humble daughter, patient son

Soon and very soon

Fi you slice a go come

'Cause it's no fun and it's no joke

Mi say you must have aspiration and dreams

And if, so be the case

Well you better make haste

Find the ways and means

Chorus

You might not be able to buy a house

Upon the hillside

Find it difficult just to

Purchase a ride

But you can live Pon the flat

Take a bus and still survive

All you got to do is

Get yourself organized

'Cause the wickedest thing

 

Is when you don't have hope

And you full of despair

And you receive and get deceive

And you just don't believe

That you can reach somewhere

 

Chorus
