W´en mi jus´ come to Landan toun 
Mi use to work pan di andahgroun 
But workin´ pan di andahgroun 
Y´u don´t get fi know your way around

Dere´s no runnin´ whey fram it 
 
Mi get a lickle jab in a bih ´otell 
An´ awftah a while, mi woz doin´ quite well 
Dem staat mi aaf as a dish-washah 
But w´en mi tek a stack, mi noh tun clack-watchah

Fus dem rab it wid dem big tax rackit
