Lyrics for Mr. Sluggard by Culture
[Joseph Talking]
Come to justice Mr. Sluggard
Me did ah chat to you
Sit down everyday lazy
Like you ah park bench
You think ah so
[Chorus]
So tell me where you get your bread Mr. Sluggard
Tell me where you get your bread each day and night
Tell me where you get your bread Mr. Sluggard
Tell me where you get your bread each time
[Verse 1]
Have you ever worked a fork lift
Hustling day and night on the wharf
Have you ever worked a taxi
Sleeping on the street side all night long
To find some food
[Chorus]
So tell me where you get your bread Mr. Sluggard
Tell me where you get your bread
Each time you lift your knife and fork
Tell me where you get your bread Mr. Sluggard
Tell me where you get your bread each time
[Verse 2]
To work in the radio station
It’s not easy at all
Did you check out Sister Mary
Selling with her basket in Carnation market
Don’t you respect that Hustling?
[Chorus]
Tell me where you get your bread Mr. Sluggard
Tell me where you get your bread each time
You eat ah belly full
Tell me where you get your bread Mr. Sluggard
Tell me where you get your bread each time
[Verse 3]
Have you every work in ah coal pit
Burning fire coal for the nation to cook
I saw you all day long in the streets
Something on the sidewalk you a look
[Chorus]
So tell me where you get your bread Mr. Sluggard
Tell me where you get your bread each time you eat
Tell me where you get your bread Mr. Sluggard
Tell me where you get your bread each time
[Verse 4]
You want the prettiest bootie
The new jeans cannot pass
And as you see a pretty car on the wharf
About it you start to talk
Still have ambition though
[Chorus]
Tell me where you get your bread Mr. Sluggard
Tell me where you get your bread each time
Tell me where you get your bread Mr. Sluggard
Tell me where you get your bread each time
[Verse 5]
Did you ever push a hand cart
Full of farmers goods
Crossing the street between truck and cars
Blowing four inches across death’s face
Hear me when I say…
[Chorus]
So, tell me where you get your bread, whoa oh, yeah
It’s hard on the streets, for the hustlers
Thief man, watch yourself
You better watch, watch what you’re doing..
