You Can’t Be Wrong and Get Right Songtext
von Jimmy Cliff

Hey hey listen now
Uuunh uunnh
You can′t be wrong and get right
No matter how hard you may try
Anything that brings in darkness must come out in light
For you can't be wrong and get right
Now if you tell a little lie and think you′ll get away
Cheat a little bit and you will have to pay
Cos when you think it's peace and safety, my friend
Sudden destruction's your end
Oh cos you can′t be wrong and get right
No matter how hard you may try
Anything that brings in darkness must come out in light
For you can′t be wrong and get right
Yes if you play with fire, man, you must get burned
If you didn't know then you′d better learn
Cos if you check it out then I'm sure you will find
You can′t be wrong and get right
Hey hey now
Heeey hear me now, now, now, now, now


Instrumental
Uuunh uuunh uuunh
You can't be wrong and get right
No matter how hard you may try
Anything that brings in darkness must come out in light
For you can′t be wrong and get right
Cos if you tell a little lie and think you'll get away
Cheat a little bit and you will have to pay
Cos when you think it's peace and safety, my friend
Sudden destruction′s your end
Oh cos you can′t be wrong and get right
No matter how hard you may try, try, try
Anything that brings in darkness must come out in light
For you can't be wrong and get right
Yes if you play with fire, man, you must get burned
If you didn′t know then you'd better learn
And if you check it out then I′m sure you will find
You can't be wrong and get right
No, no, you can′t be wrong and get right, right, right
No matter how hard you may try, try, try
Anything that brings in darkness must come out in light
For you can't be wrong and get right
No, no, no you can't be wrong and get right
