Folk Wisdom (dub mix feat. J. Budrevo)

- song in the reggea style about why life in the country may be preferable to life in the city

Folk wisdom got it right
Folk wisdom never falters
City dwellers fuss and fight
Folk wisdom never alters

I was born – out in the woods
Near the shepherds and surveyors
Those old men – sure spilled the goods
In their chants and solemn prayers, ooh

Folk wisdom got it right
Folk wisdom never falters
City dwellers fuss and fight
Folk wisdom never alters

Then I moved – out to the west
Where the good laws meet confusion
I was sure – put to the test
But there’s only one solution

Folk wisdom got it right
Folk wisdom never falters
City dwellers fuss and fight
Folk wisdom never alters

BREAK

Now I get – back to the roots
To the source of songs and prayers
And you’ll find me in the woods
Near the shepherds and surveyors

Folk wisdom got it right
Folk wisdom never falters
City dwellers fuss and fight
Folk wisdom never alters
Folk wisdom got it right
Folk wisdom never falters
City dwellers fuss and fight
Folk wisdom never alters
