Them belly full but we hungry
A hungry mob is an angry mob
A rain a-fall but the dirt, it tough
A pot a-cook but the food no 'nough

We're gonna dance to Jah music, dance
We're gonna dance to Jah music, dance

Forget your sorrows and dance
Forget your troubles and dance
Forget your sickness and dance
Forget your weakness and dance, I say

Cost of livin' gets so high
The rich and poor they start to cry
And now the weak must get strong, they say
Oh, what a tribulation, saying
My belly full but me hungry
A hungry mob is an angry mob
A rain a-fall but the dirt it tough
A pot a-cook but the food no 'nough

We're gonna chuck to Jah music, we're chuckin' lord
Hey-hey, we're chuckin' to Jah music, we're chuckin'

Ooh, my belly full but me hungry
A hungry mob is an angry mob
A rain a-fall but the dirt it tough
A pot a cook but the food no 'nough
Rain a-fall (dirt it tough)
And pot a-cook (food no 'nough)
And then hungry man (angry mob)
I say a hungry man (angry man)
Lord, a hungry mob (angry man)
And then hungry mob (angry mob)
I say a hungry mob (angry man)
And the rain a-fall (dirt it tough)
And a-uh, ah (food no 'nough)
And you da cook (food no 'nough)
Lord, lord, lord, lord, (food no 'nough)

And them hungry mob (angry mob)

And then the pot to cook (food no 'nough)
