Pot Of Gold
Akon · Trouble [2004]
Ohhh yeah, dada, dodo, dada, dodo, dada, dodo, Akon
Life come and go
So let the history be told
We're all out here
Hustlin' to make a way
And while you're stumblin' and fallin' [stumblin' and fallin']
Why don't you pick yourself up now [pick yourself up now]
You see we all out here
Working day by day
So tell me
How can we work it out
On that day when its time to share the gold at the end of the rainbow
How can we work it out
When good and evil be
The day you kiss his fate
Cause it will soon come
You soon lose track of which way is up when your always being put down
[being put down]
You gotta be strong and do what you feel in your heart
Regardless of who's around [regardless of who's around]
I know it might seem bold
But thats all we have [all we have]
Many centuries and we're steady gettin old
But you know to what we never had
Sooo
How can we work it out
On that day when its time to share the gold at the end of the rainbow
[how can we] How can we work it out [how can we]
When good and evil be
The day you kiss this fate
Cause it will soon come
How can we work it out
On that day when its time to share the gold at the end of the rainbow
[share the gold]
How can we work it out
When good and evil be
The day you kiss this fate
Cause it will soon come
How can we work it out [dada]
