Irie Smiles
Irie smiles when The Man come around
We never frown otherwise He know it's workin', yea
Irie smiles when The Man come around, and we never frown, never frown
Irie smiles when The Man come around
We never frown otherwise He know it's workin', yea
Irie smiles when The Man come around, and we never frown, never frown
It's all been done and it's all been said
We're singin' of the troubles of the common man
But the only one who listen is the common man
Don't think that Uncle Sam is gonna give a damn
Yet He try to turn around and say He's my friend
But He the kind of friend who come again and again
Knockin' at your door you better never let him in
He askin' for more when you give and you give
But I only give the finger in the middle of my hand, come on!
Irie smiles when The Man come around
We never frown otherwise He know it's workin', yea
Irie smiles when The Man come around, and we never frown, never frown
Irie smiles when The Man come around
We never frown otherwise He know it's workin', yea
Irie smiles when The Man come around, and we never frown, never frown
See it's the same old song and the same old dance
Mind's ignorant and voices suppressed
They try to keep us down so they can tel us what's best
They say the dream is dead or that it doesn't exist, bullshit
But if it were up to me, I'd lead the great return to the land of the free
For no authority can tell us how to be, when we're one united people livin' peacefully
Yes one voice together the whole world will hear it
Until then, we can't let them break our spirit
Irie smiles when The Man come around
We never frown otherwise He know it's workin', yea
Irie smiles when The Man come around, and we never frown, never frown
Irie smiles when The Man come around
We never frown otherwise He know it's workin', yea
Irie smiles when The Man come around, and we never frown, never frown
Irie smiles when The Man come around
We never frown otherwise He know it's workin', yea
Irie smiles when The Man come around, and we never frown, never frown
Irie smiles when The Man come around
We never frown otherwise He know it's workin', yea
Irie smiles when The Man come around, and we never frown, never frown
Irie smiles, Irie smiles, Irie smiles, and we never frown, no!
And we never frown, never frown-own-own, we never frown, never frown-own-own
We never frown, never frown-own-own, we never frown, never frown-own-own-own
We never frown otherwise He know it's workin', yea
Irie smiles when The Man come around, and we never frown, never frown
Irie smiles when The Man come around
We never frown otherwise He know it's workin', yea
Irie smiles when The Man come around, and we never frown, never frown
It's all been done and it's all been said
We're singin' of the troubles of the common man
But the only one who listen is the common man
Don't think that Uncle Sam is gonna give a damn
Yet He try to turn around and say He's my friend
But He the kind of friend who come again and again
Knockin' at your door you better never let him in
He askin' for more when you give and you give
But I only give the finger in the middle of my hand, come on!
Irie smiles when The Man come around
We never frown otherwise He know it's workin', yea
Irie smiles when The Man come around, and we never frown, never frown
Irie smiles when The Man come around
We never frown otherwise He know it's workin', yea
Irie smiles when The Man come around, and we never frown, never frown
See it's the same old song and the same old dance

Irie smiles when The Man come around
We never frown otherwise He know it's workin', yea
Irie smiles when The Man come around, and we never frown, never frown
Irie smiles when The Man come around
We never frown otherwise He know it's workin', yea
Irie smiles when The Man come around, and we never frown, never frown
Irie smiles, Irie smiles, Irie smiles, and we never frown, no!
And we never frown, never frown-own-own, we never frown, never frown-own-own
We never frown, never frown-own-own, we never frown, never frown-own-own-own
