Let's come together and ah be one nation
Ever our nation with ah one destiny

'Nough starvation inna in this our nation

What's gwan inna this our country?
(What a feelin' inna dis ah country)
(Each and every man, dem ah halla fi murder)

(Can't take the pressure inna longer time)
(Each and every man, dem ah halla)
