Di Good Life

Sowshallism

Is a wise ole shephad

I'm suvvie tru flood

Tru drout

Tru blizad

Some people seh

I'm a two hundred an odd years ole

Addah people seh

Notn noh goh soh

Dat I'm a jus seventy odd years ole

Some seh I'm is a ghost

Some seh I'm is a sage

But nohbady noh really know

I'm riteful age are whey I'm come fram

Fateful is I'm flock

From di ewe to di ram to di Iam

Right tru tick an tin

Dem mostly cling to I'm

Awftah all

Noh I'm guide an sheltah an protect dem ?

( sometime a dem haffi protect I'm dow

Like ow a dem haffi protect I'm now )

Look ow I'm stretch out pan I'm back

Pan di brown grass

Di white hair pan I'm branze he'd

Like a kushan gense di weepin willow tree

Lookin bedraggled an tin

Like seh life done wid I'm

Like seh I'm is totally at peace widin

Noh baddah goh feel sarry fi I'm

Are goh tink poor ting

Nat a ting noh dhu I'm

All dat really happn

Is dat due to di heat a di time

Like lickle bwoy blue I'm drap asleep

An a dream bout lickle bow peep

An wan an two a I'm flock dem drif a way

While di addah ism dem

Jus a watch an a peep

Jus a crawl an a creep

An noh baddah ask if dem naw mek fun

Fi confuse an cansume all di stray dem

But everything is jus fi a time

Soon di flack wi tek a stack an surmise

Ow far fram di fole dem a stray

Wen dem site ow di pack jus a staak dem

Dem wi come back togeddah wance agen

An shephad di sage to a highah graun

Whichpawt di graas is greenah an sweetah

Hichpawt di breeze blo
