Ain't Gonna Figure It Yet Beenie Man

Verse 1: I'm brave but I'm shaking
I'm near but yet I'm far
I don't believe in civilization
But yet I still drive a car
I'm crippled but I'm walking
I'm freed yet I'm barred
I don't believe in hard work
But still I have a farm


Chorus: But look what it all comes down to
Ain't goona figure it yet
'Till you have one hand full of ashes
And the other hand is putting your soul to rest


Verse 2: I'm broke but I'm still spending
I'm poor but I'm kind
I'm a sinner yet I'm an angel
I'm leading but I'm behind
I'm dumb but I'm talking
I'm seeing yet I'm blind
I'm dull but I'm still shinning
I'm alive but I can die


Chorus

Verse 3: I ain't hungry but I'm drinking
I hate liquor but I'm drinking wine
I'm puzzled to be crowned king
I'm the law but I do crime
I'm cool but I'm vicious
I'm a fool but I'm wise
I'm a politician but I'm not voting
I guess this is the end of my line


Chorus

Verse 4: (Bridge) I'm sad but I'm happy
I'm not gonna loose my mind
It's late but it's so early
And I wonder what's the time
