Come to justice Mr. Sluggard
Me did ah chat to you
Sit down everyday lazy
Like you ah park bench
You think ah so

So tell me where you get your bread Mr. Sluggard
Tell me where you get your bread each day and night
Tell me where you get your bread Mr. Sluggard
Tell me where you get your bread each time

Have you ever worked a fork lift
Hustling day and night on the wharf
Have you ever worked a taxi
Sleeping on the street side all night long
To find some food

So tell me where you get your bread Mr. Sluggard
Tell me where you get your bread each time you lift your knife and fork
Tell me where you get your bread Mr. Sluggard
Tell me where you get your bread each time

To work in the radio station
It's not easy at all
Did you check out Sister Mary
Selling with her basket in Carnation market

Tell me where you get your bread Mr. Sluggard
Tell me where you get your bread each time you eat ah belly full
Tell me where you get your bread Mr. Sluggard
Tell me where you get your bread each time

Have you every work in ah coal pit
Burning fire coal for the nation to cook
I saw you all day long in the streets
Something on the sidewalk you a look

So tell me where you get your bread Mr. Sluggard
Tell me where you get your bread each time you eat
Tell me where you get your bread Mr. Sluggard
Tell me where you get your bread each time

You want the prettiest bootie
The new jeans cannot pass
And as you see a pretty car on the wharf
About it you start to talk
Still have ambition though

Tell me where you get your bread Mr. Sluggard
Tell me where you get your bread each time
Tell me where you get your bread Mr. Sluggard
Tell me where you get your bread each time

Did you ever push a hand cart
Full of farmers goods
Crossing the street between truck and cars
Blowing four inches across death's face
