Lyrics:

In the streets it's getting hot
And the youths them a get so co-o-oold
Searching for food for the pot
They'll do anything to fill that gap, whoo-o

In the streets it's getting hot
And the youths them a get so co-o-oold
Searching for food for the pot
They'll do anything to fill that gap

As generation comes and grows
You gotta make preparation for the youths them a grow
It's what you reap it's what you sow
The youths them have a life in the future so when that's then you know
If education is the key
Then tell me why the people have to make it so expensive for we
Give them the key, oh set them free eeeeeeeeee

In the streets it's getting hot
And the youths them a get so co-o-oold
Searching for food for the pot
They'll do anything to fill that gap, whoo-o

In the streets it's getting hot
And the youths them a get so co-o-oold
Searching for food for the pot
They'll do anything to fill that gap

Oh na na na ay
Oh na na na, oh na na na, na na, na na na
You gotta find a better way
'Cause when we look in a babylon me see a bearful play
And so the gideon stay, yayaa-aa.

All nation come together know that kingston selassi the truth and the light and the way
Kingston people lead them in the right way, eeeee

In the streets it's getting hot
And the youths them a get so co-o-oold
Searching for food for the pot
They'll do anything to fill that gap, whoo-o

In the streets it's getting hot
And the youths them a get so co-o-oold
Searching for food for the pot
They'll do anything to fill that gap

You got to show the people there's still a brighter way, ay
I know for sure the sun will come out today ay.
Finding people solution will have to fade away ay, yeah
And all the wicked deeds that done you know you got to pay yay

In the streets it's getting hot
And the youths them a get so co-o-oold
Searching for food for the pot
They'll do anything to fill that gap, whoo-o

In the streets it's getting hot
And the youths them a get so co-o-oold
Searching for food for the pot
They'll do anything to fill that gap

As generation comes and go
You gotta make preparation for the youths them a grow
It's what you reap it's what you sow
The youths them have a life in the future so when that's then you know
If education is the key
Then tell me why the people have to make it so expensive for we
Give them the key, oh set them free
