What a weeping and a mourning

It's weeping and mourning

Alright

My heart cries out for the poor and needy

My xin cries out for the suffering youths

My heart cries out for the poor and needy

My xin cries it cries it cries

My heart cries

Alright den

Rastaman a no tangerine fi dem come bout come peg

Man a real nazarene a bare fire mi a spread

Rome ago bun down uno fi get dat inna oun head

For all the innocent souls that they mislead

Eeh have some a wipe dem car glass some a beg

Di hungry dem no feed and di bling dem no lead

Dem guilty as charge but a innocent them plead

Babylon you end ago dread

My heart cries out for the poor and needy

My xin cries out for the suffering youths

My heart cries out for the poor and needy

My xin cries it cries it cries

My heart cries

Den oun caan plant pine and want fi reap plum

Uno ill- treat di people and want dem stay dum

Have di cake fi uno self not even want give we di crumbs

Eeh dis ya one it pain to the gums

These scrums

Give the people better income

More huo huo more huo haffie bun

Increase you knowledge dem you gain wisdom

Aheeh

Make mi hear di reggae drum

My heart cries out for the poor and needy

My xin cries out for the suffering youths

My heart cries out for the poor and needy

My xin cries it cries it cries

My heart cries
