Di eden a try But mi badder dan dem Mi seh di eden a try But mi rougher dan dem I-man stand up alone Like Daniel in di Lion den five and four make nine And one make ten And if a heathen come me wouldn't keep him friend cuz if a money in a mi pocket it must have to spend
That's why mi know Seh mi rougher dan dem badder dan dem harder dan dem tougher dan dem
Di eden a try But mi rougher dan dem
Jah Jah take 3 fishes And 1 barley loaf And the Bible say Him feed up a multitude But if mi can't get food And mi mustn't get rude
Just like old Lot's wife Turn a pillar of salt If mi don't have no money It's not mi bredren fault
Eden a try But we badder dan dem rougher dan dem tougher dan dem harder dan dem
Like Shadrack, Meshach and even Abednego Mi seh dem cast in di fyah and dem never get burned
But the more I live is the more I learn Lord-a-God mi seh mi badder dan dem rougher dan dem tougher dan dem harder dan dem
Di eden a try But mi badder dan dem Mi seh eden a try But mi tougher dan dem
??? If weal is ?? seh mi affi serve HIM One ting mi know mi affi praise di King
