Sobolo - Six Strings

I’ve got what I’ve got

You’ve got what you’ve got

(So) keep your red wine I’ll sip my sobolo

Keep your slim girl I love my obolo

Everyone knows that life is hard

That’s why we working hard, and

We don’t want to live with this sorrow

All we want is a better tomorrow

I’ve got what I’ve got

You’ve got what you’ve got

(So) keep your red wine I’ll sip my sobolo

Keep your slim girl I love my obolo

Everyone knows that life is hard

That’s why we working hard, and

We don’t want to live with this sorrow

All we want is a better tomorrow

Just like the parable in the Bible

Where the master gave all talents to his servants

Don’t sit there wishing you had mine

Who knows you got five and I only have one?

Work with what you’ve have

Work with what you’ve got

Love the life you live

Live the life you love

If you concentrate on the things you do not have

You might never ever have enough

I’ve got what I’ve got

You’ve got what you’ve got

(So) keep your red wine I’ll sip my sobolo

Keep your slim girl I love my obolo

Everyone knows that life is hard

That’s why we working hard, and

We don’t want to live with this sorrow

All we want is a better tomorrow

I’ve got what I’ve got

You’ve got what you’ve got

(So) keep your red wine I’ll sip my sobolo

Keep your slim girl I like my obolo

Everyone knows that life is hard

That’s why we working hard

We don’t want to live with this sorrow

All we want is a better tomorrow

The Browns are fighting again

They’ve waited too long for the cry of a baby

They have it all but all they pray for

Is the gift of a baby

My friend Atongo lives in the Zongo

All he owns is an old Busanga Volvo

He’s got nine kids, he’s still expecting

But he can barely provide for his family

The rich dey struggle, the poor dey hustle

Oh my paddy no where easy

No where easy oh

Work with what you’ve have

Work with what you’ve got

Love the life you live

Live the life you love

If you concentrate on the things you do not have

You might never ever have enough

I’ve got what I’ve got

You’ve got what you’ve got

(So) keep your red wine I’ll sip my sobolo

Keep your slim girl I love my obolo

Everyone knows that life is hard

That’s why we working hard, and

We don’t want to live with this sorrow

All we want is a better tomorrow

I’ve got what I’ve got

You’ve got what you’ve got

(So) keep your red wine I’ll sip my sobolo

Keep your slim girl I love my obolo

Everyone knows that life is hard

That’s why we working hard, and

We don’t want to live with this sorrow

All we want is a better tomorrow
