Poor and Clean - Gregory Isaacs

So many years I’ve been slaving in your factory

Never had a chance to talk with the boss

And for so long I’ve been living in this old community

Where no one knew my pain yet I’ve paid the cost

No one knew my pain lord yet I’ve paid the cost

But I would rather to live poor and clean

Than to live rich in corruption

I said that I’ve I’ve got to live clean

Cause Jah has got to pass down judgement

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 man’s heaven is a poor man’s hell
