2. Brand New Second Hand

 You're only acting like
 You are somebody
 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 had
 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


3. Dreamland

 There's a land that I have heard about
 So far across the sea (repeat)
 To have you all, my dreamland
 Would be like heaven to me (repeat)

 We'll get our breakfast from the tree 
 We'll get our honey from the bees 
 We'll take a ride on the waterfalls 
 And all the glories, we'll have them all

 And we'll live together on that dreamland
 And have so much fun (repeat)
 Oh, what a time that will be
 Oh yes, we'll wait, wait, wait and see
 We'll count the stars up in the sky...

 ...And surely we'll never die

6. It Hurts To Be Alone

 After he, breaks your heart
 Then you'll be sad
 And your teardrops start
 Then you'll know how
 It hurts to be alone

 Just because you think that you're so smart
 Going around breaking lover's hearts
 Now you're defeated
 By your own weapon

 After he, breaks your heart
 Then you'll be sad
 And your teardrops start
 Then you'll know now
 It hurts to be alone

11. No Sympathy

 I can't find no love
 No sympathy
 What kind of love
 They've got for me
 I'm on my way 
 To happiness
 Where I can find
 Some peace and rest

 When I'm in my trouble here
 Only me feels the pain
 Not one good word of advice 
 From any of my so called friends

 I can't find no love
 No sympathy
 What kind of love
 They've got for me
 I'm on my way 
 To happiness
 Where I can find
 Some peace and rest

 Might as well, might as well
 I get out, I get out of hell
 Hell would never be made for me
 So I'm gonna search, search 'till I'm free
 
 I can't find no love
 No sympathy
 What kind of love
 They've got for me
 I'm on my way 
 To happiness
 Where I can find
 Some peace and rest


12. Rainbow Country

 Hey Mr Music

 And I can't refuse it
 What to be got to be
 Feel like dancing
 Dance cause we are free

 I've got my home
 In the promised land
 And I feel like home
 I want you to understand
 
 Though the road is rocky
 Sure feels good to me
 And if we're lucky
 Together we'll always be

 Highway riding
 Zion rising
 Zion rising
 The moon is rising

 Though the road is rocky
 Sure feels good to me
 And if we're lucky
 Together we'll always be

 Highway riding
 Zion is rising
 Zion is rising
 The moon is rising

 Rainbow Country
 Rainbow Country
 Rainbow Country
 It's a Rainbow Country

15. Stand Alone

 There you are crying again
 But your loveliness won't cover your shame
 There you are taking true love
 While you're taking true love
 You're given the blame
 How could I be so wrong
 To think that we could get along
 Days I wasted with you, child
 If I count there'll be a million or two
 Now I stand alone through the memory that haunts me, that haunts me
 And I walk alone through the rhapsody that taunts me, that taunts me
 There you are crying again
 But your loveliness won't cover your shame
 There you are taking true love
 While you're taking true love
 You're given the blame
 How could I be so wrong
 To think that we could get along
 Days I wasted with you, child
 If I count there'll be a million or two
 Now I stand alone through the memory that haunts me, that haunts me
 And I walk alone through the rhapsody that taunts me, that taunts me
 There you are crying again
 But your loveliness won't cover your shame
 There you are taking true love
 While you're taking true love
 You're given the blame

17. This Train

 When I was just a kid, little children,
 My old man used to sing a song.
 And now I've grown to be a man
 It still lingers deep within my soul,
 Lingers deep within my soul.

 He say now, this train is bound to glory, this train.
 This train is bound to glory, this train.
 This train it is bound to glory,
 This train it don't carry no unholy.
 This train is bound to glory, this train.

 Now, this train it don't carry no backsliders, this train.
 This train don't carry no backsliders, this train.
 This train it don't carry no backsliders,
 This train only carry JAH JAH children.
 This train it is bound to glory, this train.
 
 Play a little song for me.

 This train don't carry no unholy, this train.
 This train don't carry no unholy, this train.
 This train it don't carry no unholy,
 This train only carry the children of JAH.
 This train it is bound to glory, this train.

 So many things to remember,
 So many things to forget.
 But these words they do linger,
 Linger deep within my soul,
 Lingers deep within my soul.
 
 This train is bound to glory, this train.
 This train it is bound to glory, this train.
 This train it is bound to glory,
 This train don't carry no unholy.
 This train it is bound to glory, this train.

 This train.

 Grab on brothers.
 Grab on sisters.
 Grab on mother.
 Grab on father.
 Grab on friend.
 THIS TRAIN!


18. Teenager In Love

 Each night I ask, the stars up above
 Why must I be a teenager in love
 Why must I be a teenager in love
 Put me in your milling machine,
 I never thought you could act so mean
 Now I'm wondering what to do,
 to see if you could love me too
 Each night I ask, the stars up above
 Why must I be a teenager in love
 Why must I be a teenager in love

 Each night I ask the stars up above
 Why must I be a teenager in love
 Why must I be a teenager in love
 Though my knees are getting weak, 
 and my brain is getting flatter
 Something is near, to tell me it's been badder
 I don't know just what to do,
 to see if you could love me too
 Each night I ask the stars up above
 Why must I be a teenager in love
 Why must I be a teenager in love


19. Chances Are

 Chances are we're gonna leave now
 Sorry for the victim now
 Though my days are filled with sorrow
 I see years of bright tomorrow

 Chances, chances are some might not hold out
 Chances are, hang on right now
 Through-oh-oh-oh my-my days are filled with sorrow
 I see years of bright tomorrow

 Chances, chances are some might not hold out
 Chances are, hang on right now
 Chances are, oh chances, you're my chances
 Chances are, hang on right now

 Chances are, hang on right now

 Deal with loneliness, I'll take some tear drops
 Chances are we'll have to win
 Chances are, hang on right now
 Chances are, chances are...


20. Try Me

 Try me, try me, try me, try me
 Try me, try me, try me, try me

 When the hurt is front
 And everything you do is wrong
 You need someone to comfort you
 Well, listen baby, I've come first to you, so

 Try me, try me, try me, try me

 If you need satisfaction
 Listen baby, I've got the action
 Where I am that's where it's at
 So, listen baby, it's this or that, so

 Try me, try me, try me, try me

 Oooh, oooh, ooh, ooh, oooh, oooh
 Oooh, oooh, ooh, ooh, oooh, oooh

 One more thing I'd like to say right here
