Poor and Clean
a rich mans heaven is a poor mans hell
so many years I've been slaving in your factory
never had a chance to talk to the boss
and for so long I've been living in this
old community, where no one knows my fate
yet I pay the cost
No one knows my fate yet I pay the cost
but I would rather live poor and clean
than rich in corruption
I said I've got to live clean
cause JAH has got to pass down judgement
I said I wanna be clean
can't you see what I mean?
wanna be strong
all day long
I would rather to live poor and clean
than to live rich in corruption
I wanna be clean
can't you see what I mean?
a rich mans heaven is a poor mans hell
