Aint no Way

lyrics

There's trouble in the suburbs
There is trouble in the hills
When I look my brother in eye
It makes him want kill

There's trouble everywhere I turn
Every time I turn around
But muma said to share your bread
And put your money in the ground

I know it's no way
No way, way to live
I've seen a better day
There's a way to love
And to forgive

There's profit in the trouble
There is gold inside them hills
Profit in false profits
Golden liquor in the stills

There's a day is gonna come
When we'll be breathing from a tank
So count your lucky oxygen
And put some in the bank

I know it's no way
No way, way to live
I've seen a better day
There's a way to love
And to forgive

The worry in the faces
There is sorrow in the smiles
There's bodies on the roadside
And the road goes on for miles

There's profit in the sorrow
There is profit in the loss
But when you count your pennies
Don't forget to count the cost

I know it's no way
No way, way to live
I've seen a better day
There's a way to love
And to forgive (x 2)
