G7 Songtext
von Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

(Woah) seven richest countries in the world
Now, dem-a have a little meeting
And dem-a plan to keep and oppress the poor
A-so, dem have a likkle meeting
But when dem think, then, thing goes another way
Oh, when dem think, then, thing goes another way

Oh, did you hear about these meetings?
No, you won′t find poor countries there
Because of capitalist greed
Revolution seem to be the only play
It may be an old fashion way of thinking
But I believe in the people and these aims

'Cause when dem think, then, things go the people way
One day dem deh-deh, dem no deh-deh
Oh, when dem think, then, things goes the people way
(A-one day) one day dem deh-deh, dem no deh-deh
(Dem no deh-deh, dem no deh-deh)


These countries want to stay on top
So, they′ll find any way
To them, third world people life is but a small price to be paid
They think they're great feeling no one can touch them
Well, them have a next thing comin'

′Cause when dem think, then, things go the people way
One day dem-deh-deh, dem no deh-deh
Oh, when dem think, then, thing goes another way
One day dem deh-deh, dem no deh-deh

Oh, one day dem deh-deh, dem no deh-deh

Seven richest countries in the world
What do they do for the people?
Look at America, the so-called best
How many homeless?
Where the money went
In the sky and weapons of death
Eh! Why don′t they write the needy some more cheques?

'Cause when dem think, then, thing goes another way
One day dem deh-deh, dem no deh-deh
Oh, when dem think, then, things go the people way
One day dem deh-deh, dem no deh-deh (dem no deh-deh, dem no deh-deh)


One day dem deh-deh, dem no deh-deh (dem no deh-deh, dem no deh-deh)
Oh Lord, one day dem deh-deh, dem no deh-deh (dem no deh-deh, dem no deh-deh)
One day dem deh-deh, dem no deh-deh (dem no deh-deh, dem no deh-deh)
One day dem deh-deh, dem no deh-deh (dem no deh-deh, dem no deh-deh)

And revolution seem to be the only way
Revolution seem to be the only way
