In The Roots Of The Ghetto
Johnny Clarke
United we stand, divided we fall
United we stand, divided we fall
In the roots of the ghetto, people are fussing and fighting
Weeping and crying because they're starving
(Because they're starving)
In the residential area, people are having fun
With their money (with their money)
In the roots of the ghetto, people are crying
Because they're starving (because they're starving)
United we stand, divided we fall
United we stand, divided we fall
Instead of fighting your brother each and every day
This is what I have to say
Don't fuss or fight, we must unite
And help our brother each and every day
Black man keep moving
Black man forward on
Black man keep moving
Black man forward on
Black man keep moving
Black man forward on
Black man keep moving
Black man forward on
Instead of fighting your brother each and every day
This is what I have to say
Don't fuss or fight, we must unite
And help our brother each and every day
Black man keep moving
Black man forward on
Black man keep moving
Black man forward on
United we stand, divided we fall
United we stand, divided we fall
United we stand, divided we fall
