Poor And Clean (1990 Digital Remaster) - Gregory Isaacs
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 to 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
Is a poor mans hell
