Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
You have got the dough
But I've got the soul
Yet you were trying
To keep me down in a hole
But as time go by
I will never stop try
And I know that I'm gonna make it
I'm telling you no lie
'Cause you.. was so cruel to me
You ooh, ooh, ooh, let I have to swim the sea
You was so cruel to me
You ooh, ooh, ooh
You got everything under your sleeve
You said you would make me glad
But before that I nearly mad
But I know the time will come
When I should wear the crown
The good Lord, He's looking down
He's looking down on me
And I know the seed that you sow
Is the seed that you will reap
Now, you was so cruel to me
You ooh, ooh, ooh, let I have to swim the sea
You was so cruel to me
You ooh, ooh, ooh
You got everything under your sleeve
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
You have got the dough
But I've got the soul
Yet you were trying
To keep me down in a hole
But as time go by
I will never stop try
And I know that I'm gonna make it
I'm telling you no lie
'Cause you.. was so cruel to me
You ooh, ooh, ooh, let I have to swim the sea
You was so cruel to me
You ooh, ooh, ooh
You got everything under your sleeve
