I Guess I’ve Got to Listen to Bob Marley
[Verse 1]
Mother, mother can you help me?
Can't believe the things I see
Father, father can you tell me?
Why the children can't be free?
[Pre-Chorus]
What can I do?
What can I do?
What should I do?
What is a boy to do?
[Chorus]
I guess I've got to listen to Bob Marley
See what Mister Wise Man have to say
I guess I've got to listen to Bob Marley
I'll be a better man someday
[Verse 2]
The street beneath my feet is broken
Still I can't quite remember why
And all the sidewalks are so lonely
People who walk up on them crying
[Pre-Chorus]
What can I do?
What should I do?
What is a man to do?
[Extended Chorus]
I guess I've got to listen to Bob Marley
See what Mr. Wise Man have to say
I know I've got to listen to Bob Marley
Hope to see a brighter day
I guess I've got to listen to Bob Marley
See what Mr. Wise Man have to say
I guess I've got to listen to Bob Marley
[Verse 3]
Got to find a better way
I got to know which road to take
I got to know which game to play
Everyone keep holdin' on, floatin' on
You've got to keep goin' strong
Ain't nobody know what's goin' on
Got to find a better way
Hope to see a brighter day
'Til then I've got to listen to my good friend
That I can still remember from way back when
Help me find a way, way
