Lyrics
I said the wages of sin is death
And the gift of Jah is eternal life
Oh yeah, whoa, yeah
There comes a time inna every man life
Where you haffi really think hopeful and right
Can't do the childish things you used to do
When you have your whole family a look up to you
Got to make a way to the grapevine
Can't live 'mongst your brothers like no pig and swine
Got to make a way to the grapevine
Reality me seek and a that me find
Got to make a way to the grapevine
Can't live 'mongst my brothers like no pig and swine
Got to make a way to the grapevine, yeah
Every morning as I and I rise
I pray to the Father and the devil me chastise
Nuff of them a deal inna evil
And a try to pollute it upon this land
Them a work iniquity to achieve vanity
Nuff of them a work iniquity to maintain luxury
So got to make a way to the grapevine
Can't live 'mongst my brothers like no pig and swine
Got to make a way to the grapevine
Reality me seek and a that me find
Got to make a way to the grapevine, yeah
Got to reach the grapevine
Reach the grapevine
Reality every time
You must always remember inna every life
Everyone haffi creep before them walk
Can't stretch your hand a way your hand can't reach it
And no put your weight down inna one basket
Got to creep before you walk
I beg you, humble before you talk, yeah
Oh yeah
Got to make a way to the grapevine
Can't live 'mongst my brothers like no pig and swine
Got to make a way to the grapevine
Reality me seek and a that me find
Got to make a way to the grapevine
Can't live 'mongst my brothers like no pig and swine
Got to make a way to the grapevine, yeah
Got to reach the grapevine
Reach the grapevine
Reality every time
Whoa, yeah
There comes a time inna every man life
