Paul Young - upendo Of The Common People
Living on free chakula tickets,
Water in the maziwa from a hole in the roof
Where the rain came through.
What can wewe do?
Tears from your little sister,
Crying 'cause she doesn't have a dress without a patch
For the party to go.
But wewe know she'll get kwa
'Cause she's living in the upendo of the common people,
Smiles from the moyo of a family man.
Daddy's gonna buy wewe a dream to cling to,
Mama's gonna upendo wewe just as much as she can and she can.
It's a good thing wewe don't have busfare,
It would fall thru' the hole in your pocket
And you'd lose it In the snow on the ground.
wewe got to walk into town to find a job.
Tryin' to keep your hands warm
When the hole in your shoe lets the snow come thru'
And chills wewe to the bone.
Now you'd better go nyumbani where it's warm,
Where wewe can live in a upendo of the common people,
Smile from the moyo of a family man.
Daddy's gonna buy wewe a dream to cling to,
Mama's gonna upendo wewe just as much as she can and she can.
Living on a dream ain't easy
But the closer the knit the tighter the fit
And the chills stay away.
wewe take 'em in stride for family pride.
wewe know that faith is in your foundation
With a whole lot of upendo and a warm conversation
But don't forget to pray.
Making it strong were wewe belong
And we're living in the upendo of the common people,
Smiles from the moyo of a family man.
Daddy's gonna buy wewe a dream to cling to,
Mama's gonna upendo wewe just as much as she can and she can.
