It's Alright [Surround Sound][Multimedia Track]
Bob Marley · Other Songs - Bob Marley
But I don't love to say, you're not nobody
Don't exhaust our painted face, girl
'Cause underneath that face you're just have disgrace
And you're just a brand new second hand
You'll make no one fool, you're just a brand new second hand
I only confess you, you're brand new second hand
Dirty golden rule, you're just a brand new second hand
What you've got, girl that I don't know
Why you really really got to exalt yourself
So mama used to tell me a long time ago, girl
It's not everything you own that glitters is gold
So you're just a brand new second hand
No man, no, want no, brand new second hand
You better go back round so girl, brand new second hand
Don't you show us brand new second hand
If you think it's the dress you wear that makes you a lady
Get that out of your mind, you must be crazy
You're just a brand new second had, yes girl
No man, no, want brand new second hand, yes girl
No bother come show off
So you're just a brand new second hand
