Lyrics Peter Tosh – Not Gonna Give It Up

Chorus:
I’m not gonna give it up
I’m not goin’
I’m not gonna give it up

I said that I been up there
And I’ve seen poverty beyond compare
I know slave drivers just don’t care
They just don’t care

Chorus

Africa’s the richest place
But it has the poorest race
And to me it’s just a disgrace
Just a disgrace

Africans don’t wait too long
We gotta fight ’cause it’s not wrong
Won’t you join in and sing this song
Sing this song

Chorus

To be poor it’s a hurtful pain
Livin inna poverty it’s a burning shame
Help yourself ’cause man you’re not lame
You are not lame

Chorus
