Well, I wake up early one morning
Well, I wake up early one morning
And I went down to Spanish Town
And I went down to Spanish Town
To look for a friend of mine

Who's called Seminaya
Who's called Seminaya?
Then we started to have a little talk
Then we started to have a little talk
About everything
About everything
About the situation

And this is what he said
And this is what he said
He told me, 'Famine, famine, famine
He told me, 'Famine, famine, famine
Famine on the land
Famine on the land
Because the cost of living
Because the cost of living
Is getting so high, high, high'
Is getting so high, high, high'
It's really so high, high, high
It's really so high, high, high
Sky high
Sky high
Because the cost of living
Because the cost of living
Is getting so high, high, high
I'm getting so high, high, high
So I went down to Old Harbour
So I went down to Old Harbour
To look for my brother John
To look for my brother John
To ask him how is life
To ask him how is life
And things and things and things
And things and things and things
we started to have a little talk
we started to have a little talk
About everything
About everything
About the situation
About the situation
And this is what he said
And this is what he said
He told me, 'Famine, famine, famine
He told me, 'Famine, famine, famine
Famine's on the land

Because the cost of living

Is getting so high, high, high'
Is getting so high, high, high'
It's really so high, high, high
It's really so high, high, high
Sky high

Is getting so high, high, high
I'm getting so high, high, high
So I went down to Clarendon

To look for my family

To a little street called Treadlight
To a little street called Treadlight
Is where I was born
Is where I was born
and we started to have a little talk
and we started to have a little talk
Together, together
Together, together
About the situation

And this is what they said
And this is what they said
They told me, 'Famine, famine, famine
They told me, 'Famine, famine, famine
Famine on the land
Famine on the land
Because the cost of living

Is getting so high, high, high
I'm getting so high, high, high
