Gilberto Gil – Them Belly Full (But We Hungry) lyrics
Them belly full but we hungry
A hungry mob is an angry mob
A rain a-fall but the dirt it tough
A pot a-cook but the food no â??nough
You're gonna dance to JAH music, dance
We're gonna dance to JAH music, dance

Forget your troubles and dance
Forget your sorrow and dance
Forget your sickness and dance
Forget your weakness and dance

Cost of living get so high
Rich and poor, they start a cry
Now the weak must get strong
They say, â??What a tribulationâ??

Them belly full but we hungry
A hungry mob is an angry mob
A rain a-fall but the dirt it tough
A pot a-cook but the food no â??nough

We're gonna chuck to JAH music, chuckin'
Chuckin' to JAH music, chuckin'
Cost of living get so high
Rich and poor, they start a cry

Now the weak must get strong
They say, â??Oh, what a tribulationâ??

Cost of living get so high
Rich and poor, they start a cry
Now the weak must get strong
They say, â??Oh, what a tribulationâ??

A belly full but them hungry
A hungry mob is an angry mob
A rain a-fall but the dirt it tough
A pot a-cook but the food no â??nough

We're gonna chuck to JAH music, chuckin'
Chuckin' to JAH music, we're chuckin' [Repeat: x3]
