jimmy cliff - peace

How Is There Going To Be Peace
When There Is No Justice, Oh No, Oh

Someone Is Taking More Than Their Share
Of The Bounties Of This Land And That's Not Fair

So Little People Got More Than They Need
While There's So Many Hungry Mounths In The World To Feed

And I Am Would Give My Heart So True
And I Will Give My Love For You, Tell Me

How Is There Going To Be Peace
When There Is No Justice Oh No, Oh

Someone Is Taking My Share And They Just Don't Give A Darm
No They Don't Care

So You Just Might As Well Face It
Cause There Aint No Other Way To Erase It

And I Will Give My Heart So True
And I Will Give My Love For You, Tell Me...

jimmy cliff - all for love

I've travelled far and wide
Over hills and mountain side
I've pushed aside my pride
All for love
I've travelled near and far
On foot, ship, train and car
I've wished upon a star
All for love
I've broken all the rules
I've even played the fool
Sometimes I blow my cool
All for love
Through burning sun and pouring rain
And even though I feel the pain
I'd do it all again
All for love
For love, for love,
For love, all for love
For love, for love, for love
All for love
I've travelled countless miles
Going in and out of styles
Wearing frown and wearing smile
All for love
Sometimes my faith decrease
And my anger increase
Still I keep the peace
All for love
For love, for love,
for love, all for love
For love, for love, for love
All for love
A man will sacrifice his wealth
And loose his health
Sometimes his poor heart melt
All for love
A woman will leave her home to Rome
And leave her family
To be with the one she loves
All for love
For love, for love,
For love, all for love
For love, for love,
For love, all for love
I look deep down in my soul
From thing that I behold
Sometimes I lose control
I've sacrificed
I pay the price
Still I hear that sweet refrain
Do it again, do it again
All for love
TUDO POR AMOR
Jimmy Cliff
Viajei por toda parte
Sobre colinas e montanhas
Coloquei de lado meu orgulho
Tudo por amor
Viajei por lugares próximos e distantes
À pé, navio, trem e carro
Fiz pedido a uma estrela
Tudo por amor
Quebrei todas as regras
Até fiz papel de bobo
Algumas vezes perdi minha calma
Tudo por amor
E no sol escaldante e na chuva torrencial
E mesmo tendo sentido muita dor
Faria tudo novamente
Tudo por amor
Por amor, por amor,
Por amor, tudo por amor
Por amor, por amor, por amor
Tudo por amor
Viajei incontáveis milhas
Entrando e saindo de moda
Frangindo a testa e sorrindo
Tudo por amor
Algumas vezes minha fé diminue
E minha ira aumenta
Mesmo assim mantenho a paz
Tudo por amor
Por amor, por amor,
Por amor, tudo por amor
Por amor, por amor, por amor
Tudo por amor
Um homem sacrifica sua fortuna
E perde sua saúde
Algumas vezes seu pobre coração derrete
Tudo por amor
Uma mulher sai de sua casa e vai até roma
E deixa sua família
Para ficar com aquele que ela ama
Tudo por amor
Por amor, por amor,
Por amor, tudo por amor
Por amor, por amor, por amor
Tudo por amor
Eu olho bem no fundo de minha alma
Das coisas que contemplo
E algumas vezes perco o controle
Eu fiz sacrifício
Eu paguei o preço
E ainda ouço aquele doce refrão
Faça outra vez, faça outra vez
Tudo por amor

You will see that everything has its own place in its time
You are free to salve all ridalles and make your own rhymes

I am a stranger
I am a friend
The beginning
Without ending
I am the living
And I am the loving

I am the hunger
I am the oldest
Getting younger
At last
It has come to pass
Living in the nature for the nature it is greater,
Yeah!

jimmy cliff - guns of brixton

When they kick out your front door
How you gonna come?
With your hands on your head
Or on the trigger of your gun

When the law break in
How you gonna go?
Shot down on the pavement
Or waiting in death row

You can crush us
You can bruise us
But you'll have to answer to
Oh, Guns of Brixton

The money feels good
And your life you like it well
But surely your time will come
As in heaven, as in hell

You see, he feels like Ivan
Born under the Brixton sun
His game is called survivin'
At the end of the harder they come
You know it means no mercy
They caught him with a gun
No need for the Black Maria
Goodbye to the Brixton sun

You can crush us
You can bruise us
But you'll have to answer to
Oh-the guns of Brixton

When they kick out your front door
How you gonna come?
With your hands on your head
Or on the trigger of your gun

You can crush us
You can bruise us
And even shoot us
But oh- the guns of Brixton

Shot down on the pavement
Waiting in death row
His game was survivin'
As in heaven as in hell

You can crush us
You can bruise us
But you'll have to answer to
Oh, the guns of Brixton
Oh, the guns of Brixton
Oh, the guns of Brixton
Oh, the guns of Brixton
Oh, the guns of Brixton

jimmy cliff - another summer

Another spring, another summer
Another fall, another winter
Another time, another place
Another space for feeling fine
Another year, another gear
Another day, a bright new way
Another season, another reason
Another time for feeling fine
We ain´t holding back now
We´re letting it all hang out
Let it all hang out
Right out

The time is now
Our dreams are coming thought
See them coming true
Right through
Another spring, another summer
Another fall, another winter
Another stand and it´s so grand
Another space in the human race

jimmy cliff - journey

Well the years have come and the years have gone
Still the son of man keeps a trotting on
Journey, journey on
Yet from innocence to experience
From dependence to independence
Journey, journey on
Well now i have love and i have been loved
I have judged and i have been judged
Journey, journey on
So where there come a storm there's a victory
Cause i live all and all lives in me
Journey, journey on

Journey, oh journey
And i never get, never get weary yet
Journey, oh journey
Still i never get, never get weary yet

I was captured on the banks of the river nile
Carried far beyond the seven seas
Journey, journey on
So i left my home in the morning
I wanna go home in the evening
Journey, journey on

Like the sun and sea life is flowing free
I've got to be free 1983
Journey, journey on
So from the lessons learned and the tables turned
The victories earned and my heart still yearns
Journey, journey on

jimmy cliff - many rivers to cross

Many rivers to cross
But I can`t seem to find my way over
Wandering I am lost as I travel along
The white cliffs of Dover
Many rivers to cross and it`s only my will
That keeps me alive
I`ve been licked, washed up for years and
I merely survive because of my pride.

And this loneliness won`t leave me alone
It`s such a drag to be on your own
My woman left and she didn't say why
Well I guess I have to try.
Many rivers to cross but just where to begin
I`m playing for time
There`ll be times I find myself thinking
Of committing some dreadful crime.

I`ve got many rivers to cross
But I can`t seem to find my way over
Wandering I am lost as I travel along
The white cliffs of Dover
Many rivers to cross and it`s only my will
That keeps me alive
I`ve been licked, washed up for years and,
I merely survive because of my pride.

jimmy cliff - lonely street

I walk the lonely streets
I walk the lonely streets
I walk the lonely streets
I walk the lonely streets

There was no love,
no, no love to be found
There was no love,
no, no love to be found

Evening comes
Sun sinks low
Shadows tell
that it's time
to go

Mystic smiles
on faces wide
Comic styles
But their faces
don't glow

I walk the lonely streets
I walk the lonely streets
I walk the lonely streets
I walk the lonely streets

There was no love
to be found
There was no love
to be found

Wandering child
searching for
directions
that images don't show

It's a sin
beckoning
for the love
that they need
to know

As I walk the lonely streets
I walk the lonely streets
I walk the lonely streets
I walk the lonely streets

There was no love
There was no love

I walk the lonely streets
I walk the lonely streets
I walk the lonely streets
I walk the lonely streets

Lonely streets
They don't reason with me,
they don't talk

They don't reason, they don't talk
They don't talk
They don't talk

Oh, no, lonely streets
Oh, no, only lonely streets.
