Well alright now, di hard time haffi come to an end
And di good time dem coming just round di bend, mi telling you again, mi fren
Dem just round di bend, watch it!
Chorus:
On with the good time, bad time haffi gway, yes away dem a fly - bye bye
On with the good time, no more will I roam, no more will I cry
On with the good time, bad time haffi gway, yes away dem a fly - bye bye
On with the good time, no more will I roam, no more will I cry
Mi sey di bad time dem fi over, mi nah want dem no more
Is a long time dat dem linger around mi cabin door
But dem ya hard time cyaan last, Dr. Ring Ding well sure
Now mi say: on with the goodness and the niceness galore
Read di bible, psalm 24, verse 4
Whose hands are clean and whose heart is pure
A get di blessing from above dat fi a lifetime endure
Fi keep di badness away, mi sing it a di best cure, mi sing
Chorus
Now disya sound a di sigh a di weary
Everyday mi say out dere is getting more scary
Anyway you go, you must haffi cheery
Out dere ruff and tuff and ono days may be dreary
Listen to mi word, cyaa dat a fe me theory
Call upon di father, also mother Mary
Speak up real loud, mek di whole a dem hear we
Mi sey, help come from above, is a fact you cyaan query, mi sing again
Chorus
God tidings I bring!
Di good time haffi on, di bad time haffi done
Fe mek di good ting happen mek mi tell ono whe mi tun
Mi praying to di father and di spirit and di son
Di badness haffi over bring di niceness come
Di bad bway with di gun, watch di whole a dem run
Sey when di kingdom come, sey dem nah getting none
Di good time haffi you and me, and dere mi wait pon
Mi seh "open ono ear dem", and a listen to mi song - mi sing di song again
Chorus
Well alright now, hard time dem a ting a di past, and di hard time just cyaan last.
Sey di good time dem coming round di bend, mi telling you again, mi fren, seen, dem just
'round di bend...
Put your trust in di almighty one and you cyaan go wrong, Ring Ding sey so and mi nah
gwain tek it back, seen.
Well alright now, di hard time haffi come to an end
And di good time dem coming just round di bend, mi telling you again, mi fren
Dem just round di bend, watch it!
