Dust In the Ground

Dust in the ground I have a friend in Africa He has a very kind soul And I know this girl in Siberia Where it’s always so cold My friend raj lives in Mumbai He looks like a Bollywood star And poison arrow lives in England He likes to drive a racing car And my bff lives in New Jersey She’s a medical student She’s so sweet and beautiful She’s just so magnificent There is just one world It’s where we all belong No one better than no one We all will be dust in the ground I got a friend in Malaysia She is a man utd fan She wishes to see the boys play It’s her future plan There’s farmer in Peru Every day he tend to his crops And mothers losing children in wars Tears falling like rain drops President Obama sits in the white house Bob Marley dies so very young Terrorist learning to fly airplanes Prince Charles waiting for the crown There is just one world It’s where we all belong No one better than none We all will be dust in the ground China takes over Hong Kong England had it for 100 years And in Trinidad a New Yorker Is drinking some cold beers Everyone has a passion burning But it’s easy to put out Some times we listen to others And in our minds they cast a doubt And my mother in Trinidad She’s an inspiration queen And the best food in Trinidad Is my brother place Naz cuisine There is just one world It’s where we all belong No one better than none We all will be dust in the ground
