[Intro]
Yeah, yeah
Ah, yeah

[Verse 1]
What I got, you gotta give it to your mamma
What I got, you gotta give it to your pappa
What I got, you gotta give it to your daughter
Do a little dance and then you drink a little water
What I got, you gotta get it, put it in you
What I got, you gotta get it, put it in you
What I got, you gotta get it, put it in you
Reelin' with the feelin’, don't stop, continue
Realize I don't wanna be a miser
Confide with Sly, you’ll be the wiser
Young blood is the lovin' upriser
How come everybody wanna keep it like the Kaiser?

[Chorus]
Give it away, give it away, give it away now
Give it away, give it away, give it away now
Give it away, give it away, give it away now
I can't tell, I'm a kingpin or a pauper

[Verse 2]
Greedy little people in a sea of distress
Keep your more to receive your less
Unimpressed by material excess
Love is free, love me, say 'hell, yes'
Low brow but I rock a little know-how
No time for the piggies or the hoosegow
Get smart, get down with the pow-wow
Never been a better time than right now
Bob Marley, poet and a prophet
Bob Marley taught me how to off it
Bob Marley walkin' like he talk it
Goodness me, can't you see I’m gonna cough it?
