Inglan Is A Bitch Lyrics

WÂ'en mi jusÂ' come to Landan toun

Mi use to work pan di andahgroun

But workinÂ' pan di andahgroun

YÂ'u donÂ't get fi know your way around

Inglan is a bitch

DereÂ's no escapin it

Inglan is a bitch

DereÂ's no runninÂ' whey fram it

Mi get a lickle jab in a bih Â'otell

AnÂ' awftah a while, mi woz doinÂ' quite well

Dem staat mi aaf as a dish-washah

But wÂ'en mi tek a stack, mi noh tun clack-watchah

Inglan is a bitch

DereÂ's no escapin it

Inglan is a bitch

No baddah try fi hide fram it

WÂ'en dem giÂ' you di lickle wage packit

Fus dem rab it wid dem big tax rackit

YÂ'u haffi struggle fi mek enÂ's meet

AnÂ' wÂ'en yÂ'u goh a yÂ'u bed yÂ'u jusÂ' canÂ't sleep

Inglan is a bitch

DereÂ's no escapin it

Inglan is a bitch

A noh lie mi a tell, a true

Mi use to work dig ditch wÂ'en it cowl noh bitch

Mi did strang like a mule, but bwoy, mi did fool

Den awftah a while mi jusÂ' stap dhu ovahtime

Den awftah a while mi jusÂ' phu dung mi tool
