mighty sparrow - you must pay tax lyrics

i would like to know
why they blaming the doctor so
tell me i would like to know
why they blaming the doctor so
well, one class of people fussing
while the other class cussing
running they mouth like they take brooklax
only blaming the doc for they income tax

but i want them all to know
(you can’t get away from the tax)
believe me, you could jump high or low
(you can’t get away from the tax)
even if you leave and go
(you can’t get away from the tax)
yes sir, to new york or tokyo
(you can’t get away from the tax)
you better console your mind
(you can’t get away from the tax)
even if the doctor resign
(you can’t get away from the tax)
even quite in africa
(you can’t get away from the tax)
so you see, doctor or no doctor
(you can’t get away from the tax)

believe it or not
that’s the best man we ever got
he is strong and brave
trinidad he fighting to save
well taxation over here
is nothing in comparison to elsewhere
i have traveled far and i see
so shut your mouth and pay the money

it’s time everybody should know
(you can’t get away from the tax)
well you could jump high or low
(you can’t get away from the tax)
even if you leave and go
(you can’t get away from the tax)
oh yeah, to new york or tokyo
(you can’t get away from the tax)
yes sir, you better console your mind
(you can’t get away from the tax)
even if the doctor resign
(you can’t get away from the tax)
oh yeah, even quite in africa
(you can’t get away from the tax)
so now you see, doctor or no doctor
(you can’t get away from the tax)

in the virgin isles
you got to pay taxes with a smile
in puerto rico
if you don’t pay, straight in jail you go
well in cuba and haiti
taxes higher than salary
in new york and caracas
you have to thief sometimes to pay tax

even if you kneel down and cry
(you can’t get away from the tax)
even if your grandmother die
(you can’t get away from the tax)
yes sir, don’t care how you try and you try
(you can’t get away from the tax)
oh, sparrow wouldn’t tell you a lie
(you can’t get away from the tax)
if you listen to zucharan
(you can’t get away from the tax)
i am sure you would understand
(you can’t get away from the tax)
even as a tax collector
(you can’t get away from the tax)
so you see, doctor or no doctor
(you can’t get away from the tax)

here in trinidad
some people will say dr. williams bad
if you jump and ask
what’s the reason, they would say tax, oh yes
they want to keep every cent
and making noise with the government
luckily for me i went out and see
you can’t do that in no other country

as long as you have but a job
(you can’t get away from the tax)
yes sir, even if it’s two or three bobs
(you can’t get away from the tax)
oh, so make up your mind to pay
(you can’t get away from the tax)
defrauders, stop thinking to run away
(you can’t get away from the tax)
even if you reach the airport
(you can’t get away from the tax)
yes sir, you may find yourself back in court
(you can’t get away from the tax)
oh, scavenger or inspector
(you can’t get away from the tax)
so you see doctor or no doctor
(you can’t get away from the tax)
