1 “Job, make yu koll naw,
if anybody go ansa yu?
Na who dey holy wey yu won go meet?
2 Na vexnashon dey kill who nor get sense
and na jealousy dey kill fool.
3 I don si sey fool fit dey progress,
but na wons wahala go kom distroy evritin wey e get.
4 Dia shidren nor dey save; no lawyer dey to defend dem for kourt.
5 Doz wey dey hongry go chop wetin di fool dem plant;
grass go grow kover wetin dem plant.
Pipol wey get long-trot, go tif dia propaty.
6 Evil nor dey grow from dust
or trobol from groun.
7 But just as lite dey shine go up,
na so too dem born pesin enter trobol.
