Riverside

Where is the love to be found, oh people?

Nowhere around.

For I woke on Saturday morning,

Feeling sticky and dirty after work;

Took a walk down a riverside.

I roll a little spliff,

Sat down on a stone and start to cool off;

With my burden down a riverside.

For I check around the youths,

And I try to teach the truth;

Lay their burden on the riverside.

I walk through every corner,

Try to find someone to talk to, but I have to,

Lay their burden on the riverside.

For I walk and I talk,

And I linger and I search;

Lay their burden on the riverside.

And I walk, I met the youthman pocket,

And I try to search around them;

Lay their burden on the riverside.

And I sat down quietly,

Watch the fishes circle around the little stones;

Lay their burden on the riverside.

I cup my ears and I heard the little birds,

Whistling in the tree like so;

Lay their burden on the riverside.

Live good among your neighbour,

Like sister and brother and;

Come with me a riverside.

All you need is pray to Jah, quietly,

You say it in secret, he shall reveal;

Lay their burden on the riverside.

(..)

Jah provides for the birds in the air,

And the fishes in the sea so what about me;

Lay their burden on the riverside.

Look at the crow they toil not neither do they spin,

Yet Father provide far them;

Lay their burden on the riverside.

Come with me, let us walk and talk,

And pray quietly in search;

Lay their burden on the riverside.

Look at the colour of those clothes, oh Jah,

Make each and every one individually;

Lay their burden on the riverside.

Where is the love?

Where is the togetherness too?

Lay their burden on the riverside.

I can't take the war and I can't take the shooting,

Neither the looting, just;

Lay their burden on the riverside.

I tried around Rema,

Even in the Jungle,

To find a quiet rest.

'Round there ina Nannyville,

My heart come to a trail;

Lay their burden on the riverside.

And I knock, and I search,

And I whisper and I preach;

Lay their burden on the riverside.

Where is the quietness,

And the love to be found in some corner?

Lay their burden on the riverside.

Let us walk, let us search,

Let us examine and let us see;

Lay their burden on the riverside.
