They say the sun shines for all, 
But in some people world, it never shine at all. 
They say love is a stream that will find its course; 
I mean - some people think life is a dream 
So they making matters worse. 

But no matter what the crisis is; 
No matter what the crisis is: 
Doin' it, doin' it, doin' your thing! 
(Give Jah all the thanks and praises!) 
Givin' it, givin' it, givin' it, givin' it! 
(Give Jah all the thanks and praises!) 

So - so - so much have been said, so little (been done) been done 
They still killin' - killin' the people 
And they - and they havin' (havin' their fun) 
havin' - havin' lots of fun - 
Killin' the people - (havin' fun) havin' their fun! 
They just want to be the leader 
In the 'ouse of the risin' sun. 

But no matter what the crisis is; 
Oh, no, oh, no no - no what the crisis is:

Live it up, live it up, live it up, live it up! 
(Give Jah all the thanks and praises!) 
Live it up, live it up, live it up, live it up!

They say the sun-un-un-un shines for all, 
But in some people world, it never shine at all! 
They say love is a stream, 
That will find its course, and every [bad word] to sea; 
Some people still think life is a dream, 
So they - so they makin' - makin' it worse. 

No matter what the crisis is; 
No matter what the crisis is: 
Do it: live it up, live it up, live it up, live it up! 
(Give Jah all the thanks and praises!) 
Live it up, live it up, live it up, live it up!
