Sly Dunbar and Delroy Wilson - Inner City Blues

Rockets, moon shots
Spend it on the have nots
Money, we made it
'Fore we see it, you take it

You know it make wanna holler
The way they draw my line
Make me wanna holler
The way they draw my line

This ain't livin'
This ain't livin'
No, no, baby, this ain't livin'
No, no, no, no

Inflation, no chance
To increase finance
Bills pile up sky high
Send that boy off to die

You know it make wanna holler
The way they do my life
Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life

This ain't livin'
This ain't livin'
No, no, baby, this ain't livin'
No, no, no, no

Hang ups, let downs
Bad breaks, setbacks
Natural fact is
Oh, baby, I can't pay my, my taxes

Make me wanna holler
Throw up both my hands
It makes me wanna holler
And throw up both my hands

This ain't livin'
This ain't livin'
No, no, baby, this ain't livin'
No, no, no, no

Crime is increasing
Trigger happy policing
Panic is spreading
God knows where we are heading

You know it make wanna holler
The way they do my life
Make me wanna holler
The way they draw my line

This ain't livin'
This ain't livin'
No, no, baby, this ain't livin'
No, no, no, no
This ain't livin'
This ain't livin'
This ain't livin'
This ain't livin'
This ain't livin'
This ain't livin'
Way they do my life
Way they do my life
