Lucky Dube - the way it is lyrics
Didn't I raise my voice
High enough for you
I was running like a fugitive all the time
Risking rejection from my own people, yeah
Now that you got what you wanted
You don't even know my name
It's so funny, we don't talk anymore
Be good to the people on your way up the ladder
'Cause you'll need them on your way down
That's the way it is (the way it is)
That's the way it is (the way it is)
That's the way it is (the way it is)
That's the way it is, oh no (the way it is)
Didn't I raise my fists high enough for you
I guess I can pat myself on the shoulder
For a job well done
Dodging bullets in the streets, I was there
Risking rejection from my own people
Now that you got what you wanted
You don't even know my name
Remember
Be good to the people on your way up the ladder
'Cause you'll need them on your way down
That's the way it is (the way it is)
The way it is, yeah (the way it is)
That's the way it is (the way it is)
That's the way it is (the way it is)
And that's the way it is (the way it is)
That's the way it is (the way it is)
That's the way it is (the way it is)
That's the way it is (the way it is)
The way it is (the way it is)
That's the way it is
Be good to the people on your way up the ladder
'Cause you'll need them on your way down
That's the way it is, oh no (the way it is)
That's the way it is
Be good to the people on your way up the ladder
'Cause you'll need them on your way down
That's the way it is (the way it is)
That's the way it is
Be good to the people on your way up the ladder
'Cause you'll need them on your way down

Lucky Dube - remember me Lyrics
Daddy, wherever you are
Remember me
In whatever you do
I love you
Daddy, wherever you are
Remember me
In whatever you do
I love you
You left for the city
Many years ago
Promised to come back
And take care of us
Many years has gone by now
Still no sign of you, daddy, eh
Mother died of a heart attack
Many years ago when she heard
That you were married again
Now I'm the only one left in this family
Daddy, wherever you are
Remember me
In whatever you do
I love you
Daddy, wherever you are
Remember me
In whatever you do
I love you
Wandering up and down
The streets of Soweto
No place to call my home
I tried to find you
Many years ago
But the women you're married to
Was no good at all
Daddy, wherever you are
Remember me (Remember me)
In whatever you do
I love you (Daddy, oh)
Daddy, wherever you are
Remember me (Daddy, oh)
In whatever you do
I love you
(Daddy, oh)
Daddy, wherever you are
Remember me (Daddy, oh)
In whatever you do
I love you (Daddy, oh)
Daddy, wherever you are
Remember me (Remember me)
In whatever you do
I love you (Daddy, oh)
Daddy, wherever you are
Remember me
In whatever you do
I love you (Yeah)
Daddy, wherever you are
Remember me (Remember me)
In whatever you do (Daddy, oh)
I love you (Remember)
Daddy, wherever you are
Remember me (Daddy, oh)
In whatever you do
I love you

Lucky Dube - It's Not Easy lyrics
Uuuhhh! yeaahh haahh ahh
Lord of mercy!
I remember the day I called mama on the telephone
I told her mama I'm getting married, I could hear her voice
On the other side of the telephone, she was smiling
And she asked me a question that I proudly answered
She said, "Son did you take time to know her?"
I said mama she's the best but today it hurts me so
To go back to mama and say mama I'm getting divorced
Oh I'm getting divorced
This choice I made didn't work out
The way I thought it would
This choice I made. It hurts me so mama,
This choice i made, didnt work out the way i thought it would, this choice of mine oh!
Mama said me.
It's not easy to understand it son
But I hope you'll make it, you'll be happy again. 2x
I remember in church, when the preacher man read the scriptures
You looked so beautiful, so beautiful and so innocent
I did not know that behind that beauty
Lies the true colors that will destroy me in the near future
This choice I made didn't work out to be what i thought it be
Oh!, mama
This choice i made didnt work out the way i thought it would now am hurting.
