Don't let the children cry, 'cause if you do that then you're gonna have to tell jah jah why, why why why,
You got to answer why.
Suffer the little children to come unto i,
So jah say, and forbid them not.
Such is the kingdom of zion,
Such is the kingdom of zion.
Because the youths of today shall be the future man of tomorrow
The youths of today shall be the future man of tomorrow.
The future lies in their hands,
The future lies in their hands,
The future lies in their hands.
Teach the youths wisdom,
Feed them and make them strong
Teach the youths the way,
Teach them what is right from wrong, teach them what is right from wrong.
Don't let the children cry, 'cause if you do that then you're gonna have to tell jah jah why, why why why,
You got to answer why.
Don't let the children cry, 'cause if you do that then you're gonna have to tell jah jah why, why why why,
You got to answer why.
Don't let the children cry,
No no no don't let them cry,
'cause if you do that then you're gonna have to tell jah jah why, why why why,
You got to answer why.
'cause if you do that then you're gonna have to tell jah jah why, why why why,
You got to answer why.
Teach the youths wisdom,
Feed them and make them strong
Teach the youths the way,
Teach them what is right from wrong, teach them what is right from wrong.
Don't let the children cry, 'cause if you do that then you're gonna have to tell jah jah why, why why why,
You got to answer why.
