Begging You A Ten Cent Sir

[Intro]
Hear me when I sing
Hear me when I say

[Chorus]
Begging you a ten cent, sir
Begging you a ten cent, sir
Can not have, no-no, can not have
Begging you a ten cent, sir
Begging you a ten cent, sir
Can not have, no-no, can not have

[Verse 1]
But the thing you are people doing
What you all are doing
You will end up, up, up in jail

[Chorus]
Begging you a ten cent, sir
Begging you a five cent, sir
Can not have, no-no, can not have

[Post-Chorus]
But them really don't have a five cent
And no a ten cеnt
Say, a ten cent will do for me (So)

[Verse 2]
I wakе up this morning, I ain't got no thing
Go to my bed with my hungry belly
I know, you have something to give me
Don't let me down go hunger

[Chorus]
Begging you a five cent, sir
Begging you a five cent, sir
Can not have, no-no, can not have

[Verse 3]
But the thing you are people doing
What you all are doing
You will end up, up, up in jail
But the thing you are people doing
What you all are doing
You will end up, up, up in jail
But the thing you are people doing
What you all are doing
You will end up, up, up in jail
*Scatting*

[Verse 4]
I wake up this morning, I go to my bed
I go to my bed with my hungry belly
Know you can give me something
Don't let me down

[Chorus]
Begging you a ten cent, sir
Begging you a five cent, sir
Can not have, no-no, can not have

[Post-Chorus]
But them really don't have a ten cent
And no a five cent
And I know that Jah would bless you, so *Scatting*

[Verse 5]
But the thing you are people doing
What you all are doing
You will end up, up, up in jail

[Outro]
Know you can give me something
Don't let me down, down, down, down, down, down, down
Don't let me down, just give me something, hey man
Say, I know you can give me something
Don't let me down, down, down, down, down, down, down
