Lyrics Gregory Isaacs – Material Man

I really wanna know right now

I know you wasn’t around
When I was slaving myself
Yet you seat back and relax

Is it material things you’re running after
Or is it praises that you’re giving on to Rasta?
I really wanna know right now

I gave a hand onto the wicked
But I give him it with caution
Well, I was giving love
He was seeking for reaction, tell me

Is it material things you’re running after
Or is it praises that you’re giving on to Rasta?
I really wanna know right now
Yes, I really wanna know right now
Oh mister wicked

I know you wasn’t around
When I was slaving myself, oh gosh
Yet you seat back and relax
And you took all the wealth

Is it material things you’re running after
Or is it praises you are giving on to Rasta, please?
I really wanna know right now
Really wanna know right now

You put Jah trust in vanity
And forget about your liberty
But I really wanna know right now

Now we get to understand
You are just a material man

Now we get to understand
That you’re just a material man
Hey, mister wicked
