They just can't keep I down
I'll always be around
Never will they get I down
I'll always be around
I work real hard, night and day
Can't let no one just, take that away
I try in life, to do my best
But some would love to see me stoop to less
They just can't keep I down
I'll always be around
Never will they get I down
and I'll always, you'll always, he'll always, yeah
(musical interlude)
Some would love to sweep your feet off the ground
Ev'ry time you get up they keep pushing you down
The shortest way home is the long way round
The deepest rivers never make a sound
They just can't keep I down
I'll always be around
Never will they get I down
I'll always be around
I said they just can't keep I down
and I'll always be around
With the powers of jah jah jah jah
Can't keep I down (15 times)
They just can't keep I down
I said they just can't keep I down
I'll always be around
Never will they get I down
I'll always be around
I work real hard, night and day
Can't let no one just, take that away
I try in life, to do my best
But some would love to see me stoop to less
They just can't keep I down
I'll always be around
Never will they get I down
and I'll always, you'll always, he'll always, yeah

Some would love to sweep your feet off the ground
Ev'ry time you get up they keep pushing you down
The shortest way home is the long way round

They just can't keep I down

Never will they get I down
I'll always be around
I said they just can't keep I down
and I'll always be around
With the powers of jah jah jah jah
Can't keep I down (15 times)
They just can't keep I down
I said they just can't keep I down
