Get up mister slowcoach, you're moving much too slow
Get above the slumbering, there ain't much time to go
You got to stand and be a man
Let the nation know your plan
This world is in a crisis, seeking humanity
Look into the Middle East, there ain't no sign of peace
Heathen reign, oh yes they reign
And it won't be for long
Get up mister slowcoach, welcome the morning sun
Try to do some good work, there's plenty to be done
Giving praises unto the King
See the joy Jah love can bring
Get up mister slowcoach, you're moving much too slow
Get above the slumbering, there ain't much time to go
You got to stand and be a man
Let the nation know your plan
This world is in a crisis, seeking humanity
Look into the Middle East, there ain't no sign of peace
But heathens reign, oh yes they reign
And it won't be for long
Get up mister slowcoach, welcome the morning sun
An' try to do some good work, there's plenty to be done
Giving praises unto the King
See the joy Jah love can bring
Get up mister slowcoach, you're moving much too slow
Get above the slumbering, there ain't much time to go
You got to stand and be a man
Let the nation know your plan
