Lyrics Bob Marley – Concrete Jungle
Text:
No sun will shine in my day today (no sun will shine)
The high yellow moon won’t come out to play (that high yellow moon won’t come out to play)
I said (darkness) darkness (has come and covered my light) has covered my light,
(And has changed)
Where is the love to be found? (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Won’t someone tell me ’cause
Life (sweet life) must be (got to be) somewhere to be found (out there somewhere out there for me)
Instead of concrete jungle (Jungle, jungle, jungle!),
I said where the living is hardest (concrete jungle!).
Concrete jungle (jungle, jungle, jungle)
Man, you got to do your best (concrete jungle!)
Wo-ooh
No chains around my feet
But I’m not free
I know I am bounded in captivity; oh now
(Never known) Never known (what happiness is) what happiness is;
(Never known) I’ve never known (what sweet caress is) what sweet caress is yeah
Still, I’ll be always laughing like a clown; (oooh-oooh-oooh)
Oh someone help me ’cause I (sweet life) —
I’ve got to pick myself from off the ground (got to be, out there somewhere out there for me)
In this ya concrete jungle (Jungle, jungle, jungle!):
I said, what do you got for me (concrete jungle!) now?
Concrete jungle (jungle, jungle, jungle!), why won’t you let me be (concrete jungle!) now?
Ohhh yeah
Guitar solo
I said that life (sweet life) must be (got to be) somewhere to be found (out there somewhere for me)
Oh, instead: concrete jungle (jungle!) — collusion (concrete jungle!) —
Confusion (confusion). Eh!
Concrete jungle (jungle!): we’ve made it, We’ve got it.
Concrete jungle (jungle, jungle, jungle!).
What, what do you got for me (jungle, jungle!) now?
