Money Don't Grow Pon Trees
Lyrics
My name is Blessed
And blessed be the Blessed B
Alright then
Money don't grow on trees
And a Blessed B
Okay
Alright then
John get a visa fi fly out, haffi make
A better life fi himself in a foreign
As soon as the plane land, it feel like
Him a walk through the gates of heaven
Inna six feet of snow him haffi go work
Harder, than even how him work a yard
Never know seh him haffi go find a
White lady, fi help him get a green card
Him mother and him father start call him fi money
Him sister need milk and him auntie need honey
Him brother need a phone and him friend got no
Home and him grandmother has no money for the rent
John look into the sky, and dry the tears from his eyes
He call his family on the phone and with pain in his heart he said
Money don't grow pon trees in a foreign
You haffi work harder
Some people make it seem like seh a heaven
Who feels it knows it nuh up like seven
Money don't grow pon trees in a foreign
You haffi work harder
Some people make it seem like seh a heaven
Who feels it knows it nuh up like seven
John get a chance fi go home after
Ten long years him a work in a foreign
This time it feel like him a walk out a
Hell and a walk through the gates of heaven
Him never realize seh him haffi go spend
Hard, because him have a green card
And him never want nobody a yard fi a
Style him, with the broke foreign a card
As soon as him land John start spend money
Him rent a Benz truck and buy a car fi him mommy
Him buy out the bar from near and far
And a walk and a talk like big superstar
John money get low, and everything get slow
John looked at his friends and with pain in his heart he said
Money don't grow pon trees in a foreign
You haffi work harder
Some people make it seem like seh a heaven
