We Got Love Songtext
von Freddie McGregor

Oh, papa!
Take care of my mama
Woah woah

Grown up in a small village
Work is the only alternative for us to live
Work, work, work, and that′s not all
And finally, the pay is so small
Is this the only way for us to survive?

When mama was poor, papa for sure ain't got no money
But we got love
Mama was poor, and papa for sure ain′t got no money
But we got love

Grandfather worked from he was knee-height small
Still couldn't make enough for all
It was sure a poor way to be, yes
Was no shame, but a life of sorrow
Sometimes in anguish I scream at the horror
That still oppress us so


When mama was poor, papa for sure ain't got no money
But we got love
Mama was poor, and papa for sure ain′t got no money
But we got love

Silver and gold, we had none
And this life of living sure wasn′t fun
Papa would look at my mama and hug her by his side
And say, "Mama, don't you give up, ′cause Jah will provide"

When mama was poor, papa for sure ain't got no money
But we got love
Mama was poor, and papa for sure ain′t got no money
But we got love
Oh, when mama was poor, papa for sure ain't got no money
But we got love
Mama was poor, and papa for sure ain′t got no money
But we got love

I was grown up in a small village
Where work is the only alternative for us to live (That's right)
Work, work, work, and that's not all
And finally, the pay is so small
Is this the only way for us to survive?


When mama was poor, papa for sure ain′t got no money
But we got love
Mama was poor, and papa for sure ain′t got no money
But we got love
Mama was poor, papa for sure ain't got no money
But we got love
Mama was poor, papa for sure ain′t got no money
But we got love
Mama was poor, papa for sure ain't got no money
But we got love
Mama was poor, and papa for sure ain′t got no money
But we got love

We got love, we got love, we got love
We got love
We got love
We got love
We got love
We got love
We got love
We got love
We got love
We got love
