Hard On The Rootsman lyrics with English Translations





I says the living is rough
Rootsman, I says the time is rough Rootsman, I says these time is tough
Can't get no transportation To take your produce to town You'll be hitching a ride You've got no money to hide You can't sell your banana You can't sell your cane Potato can't sell Your coco can't sell
So many man a travel in the open truck back Now that's a fact So many man haffi travel in the open truck back Now that's a fact
Rootsman, don't you ever give up Rootsman, don't you ever give up


Rootsman, I says these country is rough Rootsman, I says these time is tough
Can't get no transportation To take your produce to town You'll be hitching a ride You've got no money to hide Your banana can't sell I says your cane can't sell Your potato can't sell I say your coco can't sell
So many man haffi travel in the open truck back Now that's a fact So many man haffi travel in the open truck back Now that's a fact
Rootsman, I say the living is rough, tough Rootsman, I say the runnings are off, tough The runnings are off I says these country is tough, hey ah
Rootsman, I says these time is rough And don't you ever give up Don't you ever give up Don't you ever give up Don't you ever give up
