poor poor me-isrealite


wife and kids, dem pack up and a leave me
darling she said i was yours to receive
poor poor me-isrealite

i don't want to end up like bonnie and clyde
poor poor me-isrealite


after a storm there must be a calm
catch me in your farm you sound an alarm
poor poor me-isrealite
