Occupation

Who have ears to hear let them hear
Sounding the trumpet loud and clear
Devil find work for idle hands
So get an occupation
Get up don't be a drag
Come on no need to brag
Get up set yourself free
All a we created equally
Who have eyes to see let them see
Nothing in life is ever free
Big hit for Mr. Don Drummond
Called Occupation
