Lucky Dube lyrics

parole de "prisoner" de Lucky Dube :





Somebody told me about it

When I was still a little boy

He said to me, crime does not pay

He said to me, education is the key, yeah

As a little boy I thought I know

What I was doing, yeah man

But today here I am in jail






I' m a prisoner (x3)




I looked all around me

But to see nothing

but four grey walls staring at me

the policeman said to me, son

They won' t build no schools anymore

All they' ll build will be prison, prison (x3)

'cos today, yeah





I am a prisoner (x2) I' m a prisoner

Dear lord




I asked the policeman and said

How much must I pay for my freedom?

He said to me, son

They won' t build no schools anymore

They won' t build no hospitals (x2)

All they' ll build will be prison, prison (x4)
