Lyrics
Good Samaritan
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
This one's for the neglected and the rejected
I'm cruising home on my skateboard
Coming from a political protest (protest)
I see the ones that I abhor
And they're surrounding me with violence (violence)
They hit me in the head
And then they pulled my dreads
It's such a dreadful day (dreadful)
And they leave me for dead
In a pool of red
All I can do is pray
The good Samaritan, Samaritan
Are you a good Samaritan
The good Samaritan, Samaritan
Are you a good Samaritan
I see a priest, but he looks the other way
In a hurry just to hear a confession (confession)
A politician full of empty promises
Says he'll help once he wins the election (election)
So as I lie and about to die
With no help from a passerby
Lord, I cry but they all deny
Just walk away and turn a blind eye
But then here comes a guy
He is my enemy
So much to my surprise
He doesn't turn away
The good Samaritan, Samaritan
Are you a good Samaritan?
The good Samaritan, Samaritan
Better know a good Samaritan
He took me to the hospital
And paid for all my bills
I thought he was my enemy - yeah
So all along the news was wrong
For he's the only one
To care for me, yeah
So many people crying out for help
But nobody wants to help them (help them)
It seems everyone is looking out for themselves
It's such a selfish system (system)
The good Samaritan, Samaritan
Are you a good Samaritan
I need to know a good Samaritan, Samaritan
Better know a good Samaritan
They want to turn us against our brothers
And to keep us focused on ourselves
They try to train us to hate each other
But turn to them and offer help, help
The good Samaritan, Samaritan
Are you a good Samaritan
The good Samaritan, Samaritan
Better know a good Samaritan
Ay ay ay ay
Do unto others
As you'd have them do to you
Be a good Samaritan, yeah
So Jah say: Do unto others
As you'd have them do to you
Be a good Samaritan, woah
This one's for the neglected and the rejected
