My girl said 
 Why don't you go get a job 
 That's what she asks me everyday 
 And she says 
 Music is not no real work 
 So I have nothing to say 
 And she seh 
 Wah mek yu hafi go rehearsal everyday 
 Wah mek yu haffi go a studio 
 Pan mi birthday 
 When was the last time you came home 
 before midnight 
 And I said to her 
    Baby one day you will overstan 
 I'm only a man working hard for my family 
 And though rewards may not come right away 
 Have some faith this I know 
 it will come it will come...it will come   
 She seh it will come 
 Can you give me a day or a time 
 Or betta yet, do you mind telling all of your plans to the landlord 
 And she seh 
 I have no faith and I won't even pretend 
 And by the way do you remember 
 Tomorrow is rent 
 You say you love me alot but that can't put food inna pot...no way   
 Then I say, all I ask of you is take your time you might wake the child even though you're angry 
 Though rewards may not come right away have some faith this I know 
 it will come it will come it must come   
 If you would only help me in our persuit for happiness 
 Then you wouldn't have to worry no more, no more 
 Try and remember when we met we were so happy yes 
 Help me bring back those days, those days will come it will come believe me it will come will come baby it will come it will come it will come things will be better it will come
