Better to Know
wealthy man him still a get rich
while the poor man sleep inna de ditch
brother can you spare a wish
there's nothing in my dish
every man is dealt a card
him bound fe play it
could be easy and it could be hard
you just haffe face it as it come
before you know it man you're life begun
before you love it man it almost gone
never hear a starting gun
but the end must surely come
try and live a good life
cos it's a thing that you can't do twice
better to know, better to know it
better to know, better to know it
better to know
what can you show for your time
except that you've given up trying
to waste such a gift divine
is a serious crime
every man is dealt a card
him bound fe play it
could be easy and it could be hard
you just haffe face it, you no hear it
before you know it man you're life begun
before you love it man it almost gone
never hear a starting gun
but the end must surely come
try and live a good life
cos it's a thing that you can't do twice
better to know, better to know it
better to know, better to know it
better to know, better to know it
better to know, better to know it
better to know
better to know
better to know
while the poor man sleep inna de ditch
brother can you spare a wish
there's nothing in my dish
every man is dealt a card
him bound fe play it
could be easy and it could be hard
you just haffe face it as it come
before you know it man you're life begun
before you love it man it almost gone
never hear a starting gun
but the end must surely come
try and live a good life
cos it's a thing that you can't do twice
better to know, better to know it
better to know, better to know it
better to know
what can you show for your time
except that you've given up trying
to waste such a gift divine
is a serious crime
every man is dealt a card
him bound fe play it
could be easy and it could be hard
you just haffe face it, you no hear it
before you know it man you're life begun
before you love it man it almost gone
never hear a starting gun
but the end must surely come
try and live a good life
cos it's a thing that you can't do twice
better to know, better to know it
better to know, better to know it
better to know, better to know it
better to know, better to know it
better to know
better to know
better to know
