Little Girl A Nuh Time Fe Skin Up - Freddie McGregor, Studio One Band

Somewhere there’s a baby crying

Somewhere as his father’s dying

Mommy ain’t got no money for buying

Food for surviving

And little baby’s dying

Somewhere there’s someone who’s lonely

Somewhere in the world profoundly

Sad to say he’s not a one and only

For there are so many

In a world of plenty

I’ve learned to love

I’ve learned to laugh

I’ve learned the truth

Within the path

Although my friends

Life soon will end

There must be something

To do for them

Somewhere there’s a father teaching

Somewhere there’s a youth man reaching

Take heed little ones to the old man’s preaching

No more cheating

Go forth and reach in

So many lies and so many tears

Grief-stricken mamas and papas

But we know what life is

And we’ve got to make it

So let’s join hands together

And our hearts for each other

Let’s go on together

Wherever and forever

Somewhere there’s a baby crying

Somewhere as his father’s dying

Mommy ain’t got no money for buying

Food for surviving

And little baby’s dying

Somewhere there’s someone who’s lonely

Somewhere in the world profoundly

Sad to say he’s not the one and only

For there are so many

In a world of plenty

I’ve learned to love

I’ve learned to laugh

I’ve learned the truth

Within the path

Although my friends

Life soon will end

There must be something

To do for them
