Lead Man Holler (from ''Island In The Sun'') Songtext
You hear me calling at the crack of dawn
Jump up, brothers, come and face the morn′
Forget your aching from the day before
'Cause today we′re goin' to do that and more
A lead man holler, "Yo"
All men follow, down you go for a working dollar
Yes, he holler, "Yo", all men follow
Down you go for a working dollar
A leader man holler, "Yo"
All men follow, down you go for a working dollar
Yes, he holler, "Yo", all men follow
Down you go for a working dollar
I want the men, the women and the children too
We got a long day out, we got a lot to do
We got to cut up, stack up and load the cane
You better bring a shawl 'cause it look like rain
A lead man holler, "Yo"
All men follow, down you go for a working dollar
Yes, he holler, "Yo", all men follow
Down you go for a working dollar
A lead man holler, "Yo"
All men follow, down you go for a working dollar
Yes, he holler, "Yo", all men follow
Down you go for a working dollar
Well, a working man, I am tried and true
I won′t ask you nothin′ that I wouldn't do
Well, you pay today is the same as last
Your work′s the same, just a little fast
A lead man holler, "Yo"
All men follow, down you go for a working dollar
Yes, he holler, "Yo", all men follow
Down you go for a working dollar
Well, I'd like to tell you ′bout yesterday
You work quite well, I am proud to say
I want every man to try his will
And make yesterday look like he was standing still
A lead man holler, "Yo"
All men follow, down you go for a working dollar
Yes, he holler, "Yo", all men follow
Down you go for a working dollar
A lead man holler, "Yo"
All men follow, down you go for a working dollar
Yes, he holler, "Yo", all men follow
Down you go for a working dollar
I want the men, the women and the children too
We got a long day out, we got a lot to do
We got to cut up, stack up and load the cane
You better bring a shawl 'cause it look like rain
A lead man holler, "Yo"
All men follow, down you go for a working dollar
Yes, he holler, "Yo", all men follow
Down you go for a working dollar
A lead man holler, "Yo"
All men follow, down you go for a working dollar
Yes, he holler, "Yo", all men follow
Down you go for a working dollar
A lead man holler, "Yo"
All men follow, down you go for a working dollar
Yes, he holler, "Yo", all men follow
Down you go for a working dollar
