Reap What You Sow

Lucky Dube · House Of Exile [1992]

We hear you crying so bitterly



Trying to get people to help you, ye, ye



But nobody will



Your son was brutalizing people every time



But you said nothing



Now it's the time to pay the price



It's time to pay, ye, ye, ye, ye



You gonna reap just what you sow



You gonna reap just what you sow



You gonna reap just what you sow



You gonna reap just what you sow



Coming back home with stolen things



Instead of telling him how wrong he was



You told him how clever he was



People coming out of burning houses



It's your son, driving stolen cars every time



It's your son but you said nothing



But now he's turning against you



You gonna reap just what you sow



You gonna reap just what you sow



You gonna reap just what you sow



Everybody knows no jail can keep him



'Cause you rubbing shoulders with the law



But now it's time to pay the price, wo, woh



You gonna reap just what you sow



You gonna reap just what you sow



You gonna reap just what you sow
