When people do good,
dem fi get recognized, and we fi make noise
All the good people, a yuh time fi profile,
a good people style
How come everybody is a...
Everybody a no?
Everybody cannot be a...
Everyone don't want to be a...
This a wanna fit the good man,
and the good woman too
All of the good people, this one is for you
For you're the good man,
and the good woman too
All of the good people,
this one is for you
When me say good,
you know you're good
You're living life like you should
You're not going to kill your brother
Take no innocent blood
Forward, never backward,
never always mov ing forward
You're not following nobody
When you see no honeywood
How can everybody be her ?
Everybody cannot be her
Everyone don't have to be
a bad man to me
We have to pick up the good
people in all the communities
The ones that we know say all of
we have responsibilities
The ones who have tried their very
best to make changes
The ones who have tried to make
it better than how it is
You don't notice how the media
pick up the badness
Newspaper, television love to glamorize this
If it's something good we do,
they never take no notice
When the badness is there
on all the front pages
How come everybody is a, everybody cannot be a,
everyone don't have to be a, everybody
a no?
How come everybody is a, everybody cannot be a,
everyone don't have to be a, say don't
take it for fun, when you give your little son that little toy gun,
now you a laugh but
The laughing will done no fun
when the funeral come
And you have to lay them down
from them young you have to start
Teaching them the good and
put the love inna dem heart
Pray that dem will stay
upon a righteous path
Keeping out of trouble being smart
And still getting the things
dem want
Everyone don't want
to be a
Everybody cannot be a
Everyone don't want to be a
Cause this a one a fi the good man,
and the good woman too
All a the good people, this a one is fi you
Fi all the good man,
and the good woman too
All a the good people,
this a one is fi you
From you proud to be good,
shout it out loud so you are overstood
Be your own mogul inna
your neighborhood
We nah pick them up like we should, and you know we really really good
High as fuck.
I'm and the good woman too
All of the good people,
this is what it is for you
We are the good man,
and the good woman too
All the good people,
this is what it is for you
Just because you say you good,
that don't mean you not cool
That don't mean anybody can
come take you for a fool
You're loving and you're humble
and you live by your rule
They can't take you for no footstool
This is what it is for the good man,
and the good woman too
you
