Jimmy Cliff Album

I've got a hard road to travel and a rough rough way to go
Said it's a hard road to travel and a rough rough way to go
But I can't turn back, my heart is fixed
My mind's made up, I'll never stop
My faith will see, see me through

Let me tell you
I'm all alone, this lonesome road I roam
I've got no love to call my very own
Oh the river gets deeper, the hills get steeper
And the pain gets deeper every day, yeah

I've got a hard road to travel and a rough rough way to go
Said it's a hard road to travel and a rough rough way to go
But I can't turn back, my heart is fixed
My mind's made up, I'll never stop
My faith will see, see me through

Aah, oh oh
Aah, oh oh - one more thing

I dream of a home far beyond the sea
Where there is love and peace and joy for me
Oh, in my eyes I see troubles and dangers for me
But destiny where it leads me I must go, hey

I've got a hard road to travel and a rough rough way to go
Said it's a hard road to travel and a rough rough way to go
But I can't turn back, my heart is fixed
My mind's made up, I'll never stop
My faith will see, see me through

Aah, oh oh - no, help me somebody
Aah, oh oh - somebody please, help me right now

Yeah, yeah, wonderful world, beautiful people
You and your girl, things could be pretty
But underneath this there is a secret
That nobody can repeat

Take a look at the world and the state that it's in today
I am sure you'll agree we all could make it a better way
With our love put together everybody learn to love each other
Instead of fussing and fighting, cheating, back-biting, scandalising and hating

Baby, we could have a wonderful world, beautiful people
You and your girl, things could be pretty
But underneath this there is a secret
That nobody can repeat, yeah now

Man and woman, girl and boy, let us try to give a helping hand
This I know and I'm sure that the love we all could understand
This is our world, can't you see
Everybody wants to live and be free
Instead of fussing and fighting, cheating, back-biting, scandalising and hating

Yeah, we could have a wonderful world, beautiful people
You and your girl, things could be pretty
But underneath this there is a secret
That nobody can repeat, mm, yeah, yeah

Talking 'bout a wonderful world, beautiful people . . .
