[Intro]
Good God help me please
I know as long as the coin is spinning
I know there is one chance of winning
[Chorus]
Now why should I worry or cry
When I know that there is victory
On the other side
(There's victory coming)
Why should I worry or cry
When I know that there is victory
On the other side
[Verse 1]
I got faith so I can wait
I got one foot stuck in the gate
I won't let go, now ain't that great?
And it'll be that way
Now as the seasons come and disappear
You'll be seeing me waiting right here
I won't be leaving without my share
With the Almighty standing right therе
[Chorus]
So why should I worry or cry
When I know that there is victory
On thе other side
(I wanna know)
Why should I worry or cry
When I know that there is victory
In the other side
[Verse 2]
We'll soon put an end to our opressors reign
And put all their ideas to shame
Gonna call on the Father's name
And our prayers will be answered one day
Pump up the reggae beat
Until we're walking on easy street
And keep pressuring them with the heat
We'll get justice in whichever way
[Chorus]
So why should I worry or cry
When I know that there is victory
On the other side
Why should I worry or cry
When I know that there is victory
In the other side
[Verse 3]
Now mama didn't scrub up them clothes for nothing
No, she wouldn't wake up so early in the morning
Wouldn't break her back give us every little thing
If she did not vision a change
Daddy wouldn't wear up the same suit for working
Sunday comes still flexing the same thing for churching
True believer so he's a always donating
Still believing strong even at his age
[Chorus]
Why should I worry or cry
Not when I know that there is victory
On the other side
(Victory on the other side)
Why should I worry or cry
When I know that there is victory
On the other side
[Verse 1]
I got faith so I can wait
I got one foot stuck in the gate
I won't let go, now ain't that great?
And it'll be that way
Now as the seasons come and disappear
You'll be seeing me waiting right here
I won't be leaving without my share
With the Almighty standing right there
[Chorus]
So why should I worry or cry
Now when I know that there is victory
On the other side
(Victory on the other side)
Why should I worry or cry
When I know that there is victory
On the other side
