Give it away

What I've got, you've got to give it to your mama
What I've got, you've got to give it to your papa
What I've got, you've got to give it to your daughter
You do a little dance and then you drink a little water

What I've got, you've got to get it, put it in you
What I've got, you've got to get it, put it in you
What I've got, you've got to get it, put it in you
Reelin' with the feelin', don't stop continue

Realize, I don't wanna be a miser
Confide, with sly you'll be the wiser
Young blood is the lovin' upriser
How come, everybody wanna keep it like the Kaiser

(Chorus)
Give it away, give it away, give it away now
Give it away, give it away, give it away now
Give it away, give it away, give it away now
I can't help, if I'm a king pin or a pauper

Greedy little people in a sea of distress
Keep your more, to receive your less
Unimpressed by material access
Love is free, love me, say hell yes

I'm a low brow, but I rock a little know-how
No time for the piggies or the hoosegow
Get smart, get down with the pow-wow
Never been a better time than right now

Bob Marley, poet and a prophet
Bob Marley, taught me how to off it
Bob Marley, walkin' like he talk it
Goodness me, can't you see I'm gonna cough it

(Chorus)

Well, lucky me swimmin' in my ability
Dancin' down on life with agility
Come and drink it up from my fertility
Blessed with a bucket of lucky mobility

My mom, I love her, cause she loves me
Long gone are the times when she scrubbed me
Feelin' good, my brother's gonna hug me
Drinkin' my juice, young love
Chug-a-lug me

There's a river born to be a giver
Keep you warm, won't let you shiver
His heart is never gonna wither
Come on everybody, time to deliver

(Chorus)
