Bob Marley - Work Lyrics






We, Jah people, can make it work;
Come together and make it work, yeah!
We can make it work;
We can make it work.

Five days to go: working for the next day;
Four days to go: working for the next day;
Say we got: three days to go now: working for the next day;
Two days to go (ooh): working for the next day, yeah.
Say we got: one day to go: working for the -
Every day is work - work - work - work!

We can make it work;
We can make it work.

[Short guitar break]

We, Jah people, can make it work;
Come together and make it work.
We can make it work;
We can make it work.

We got: five days to go work, oh! - working for the next day, eh!
Four days to go: working for the -
Three days to go now: working for the next day, yeah!
Two days to go: working for the next day
Say we got: one day to go now: working for -
Every day is work, wotcha-wa!
(Work!) I work in the mid-day sun;
(Work!) I work till the evening come!
(Work!) If ya ain't got nothing to do!
(Work!) Ooh-ooh-ooh-oo-oo-ooh!
(Work!) [fadeout]

    R.... C....

    Love an jah to you ..

  73. P.... M....

    I've loved Bob Marleys music since the early 80's. Today he'd be condemned as a conservative neo Nazi for praising work by the left on this song aand lambasted for it on the right for using the term "we". Neither has worked out in the midday sun nor from dawn to dusk. I have and I'm white and male and American and this is the truth. Idle hands are the devils plaything and the devil is calling for an apocalypse.

  74. A.... T....

    Reste in peace !!! Boris...

  75. D.... B....

    I hope they are listening Bob Marley Jah love H.l.M children..

  76. G.... C....

    listening bob marley 14 years in stretch as the very first day i started listing,,,no one can cover his voice even his own children ....his music taught me a lot and change the way of thinking..

  77. O.... P....

    muy buena musica

  78. S.... ....

    Thank you JAH for Bob

  79. R.... R....

    Dem say: "Every man got a right to decide his, own destiny" Bob say: "But in this judgement ther is, no partiality" ( Babylon have no partiality... a worker is different to a lowyer.. The first have a kind of reputation, the second a different one )
    So arm in arms, ( So work for the system ), Wich arms...!? We will fight this little struggle yei. 'Couse that's the only way we can, overcome the little trouble.
    People... We got to be free 'couse we are all in the same boat! No ego game just love!

  80. T.... M....

    If ya ain't got nothin' to do, WORK! BOB!!!!!!

  81. A.... C....

    We got some work for you.

  82. I.... A....

    Bob Marley And The inhalers

    I.... A....

    yeah he needs to get hurt for saying something that stupid! "Bob Marley and the inhalers"? fucking DUMB!!!!

    I.... A....

    Pretty sure nobody in the history of this planet wants to go to that shit-pit. Don't even have a fucking currency. Bob got tear gassed in Zimbabwe at the Independence party. Says it all.

    I.... A....

    20$ fine

    I.... A....

    Ragnar Lothbrok SHUT UP ,DEMON DEVIL,IF ANYTHING IS WRONG IN ZIMBABWE,IT BECAUSE OF THAT DEMON DEVIL RHODES,AND HIS EVIL CREW DEVIL'S ADVOCATES,IT TAKES A WHILE TO RECOVER FROM YOU DIVIDE AND CONQUER DEMON DEVILS,BUT THE PEOPLE WILL RECOVER IF THEY KEEP YOU DEMON DEVILS OUT(NO PEACE FOR YOU).

    I.... A....

    Sending one love
    Hope you find some peace in being unkind.

    Raul R. Ydler P, bob Dylan

  87. h.... ....

    Rita told of their last tour, knowing Bob was ill, how in rehearsal the band played this song over and over, and how as Bob sang five, four, three days to go, she was overwhelmed with emotions, struggling with the thought of his mortality.

    h.... ....

    I fell asleep listening to his collection-Then this song woke me up out of my spirit and shook me like crazy-It scared me at first! I understand so well why now-WORK-We must come together people...I can feel Bob's spirit-Wake up people-Time is drawing near-Forgive, and love, the sun is setting...

    h.... ....

    She was his empress till death. He had love for all the women but she was his heart soul and mind

  88. M.... K....

    i miss Bob , ziggy sounds exactly like his dad , it"s scary

    M.... K....

    Almost all of his sons have Bob in their voices. Ziggy has it the most. He lives on in their sound!

    M.... K....

    Unfortunately his Sons have sold themselves to be puppets for the elite. Bob’s music is the only one that challenged the elite and was uplifting

  89. J.... ....

    I realise now that we can make it work, come together and make it work, weee don't need big corporations, we can make our lives great, no need of them rulers

    J.... ....

    We all need one another
    Corporations are people

  90. A.... A....

    from where we came from why.we we are here why we are here why why.we we are here why I don't want to be over here why I am here I need explanation from God why.iam over here

  91. K.... ....

    Great song from a great album. I heard this years ago while in Jamaica on holiday and then bought the album as soon as I got back to England. There are very many terrific Bob Marley albums but this is one of his best.

    K.... ....

    Yes great album, I will have to say Survival in my opinion is the best.

    K.... ....

    I dont know wh8ch álbum is The best, But This is terrific

  92. P.... B....

    "Wisdom is better than silver and gold"

    g.... ....

    g.... ....

    He was supposed to be on Bohemians fc soccer jersey but unfortunately the club bought the rights to the image from a shady person and not the real people who own the rights.

    Type Bohemians Bob Marley and you can see the jersey. It would have been awesome.

    g.... ....
