Walking Tall

Walking Tall

Bankie Banx

You're walking tall
You're reaching in the sky
You're reaching in the sky

I low, low, low, low
But I'm feeling high
Oh yeah, feeling high

A friend flies high but he must lie low
This is the thing you do not know

Buddy boy, 
Come, come, come, come
Come another day

Your employer man will tell you
Have no work today
Come another day

Your good friend will tell you
Have no cash today
Come another day

The grocer will tell you
No credit today
No money, no meat

You had what you want 
You wouldn't pay me no heed
But how you can get what you really need?
Hard time come and you can't be asleep
You just can't live on your fantasy

Buddy boy
Come, come, come, come
Come another day

The preacher man will say
At this man I pray
And me money's gray

The banker will say
Take house, house, house and run away
Got no cash to pay

But Rasta will say, Wake up!
Heed my word this day
Well Jah Jah I say

You had what you want 
You wouldn't pay me no heed
But how you can get what you really need?
Tribulation comes like a mighty hand
Before the lord, you wicked man

Buddy boy
Come, come, come, come
Come another day

Long rope
The magga goat
They fear your rope
They cut your throat

Buddy boy
Come come come come
Come another day
