[Intro:]
Yah man (yo)

[Chorus:]
A nuff a dem a seh they nuh like mi but dem lonely
Cause a dem alone
Yes a dem alone, a dem alone, a dem alone
Sell dem soul fi achieve the gold
But a dem alone
Yes a dem alone, a dem alone, a dem alone
[Verse 1:]
If haffi dem alone

Lawd me woulda drive range
If haffi dem alone
