Don’t you bite the hands that feed you |
My brethren no |
Don’t you bite the hands that feed you |
Don’t you burn your bridges then behind you |
My brethren no |
Don’t you burn your bridges them behind you |
Cause if you burn your bridges down |
That is a wrong thing to do |
The good you do today will surely live after you |
I say |
Don’t you bite the hands that feed you my brethren no |
Don’t you bite the hands that feed you |

Remember the days of bread and water man |
Remember the days of hunger |
Don’t forget your roots and culture |
My brethren say |
Remember your place of shelter |
Cause if you deal with war man |
You can’t run far |
You deal with grudge |
You a go melt like fudge |
Don’t you bite the hands that feed you my brethren no |
Don’t you bite the hands that feed you no |
Don’t you bite the hands that feed you my brethren no |
Don’t you bite the hands that feed you |
Don’t you burn your bridges them behind you my brethren no |
Don’t you burn your bridges them behind you |
Cause if you deal with war man you can’t run far |
You deal with grudge |
You a go melt like fudge mi say |
Don’t you bite the hands that feed you mi brethren say |
Don’t you bite the hands that feed you no |
Remember your roots and culture my brethren say |
Remember your place of shelter |
Don’t forget the days of bread and water man |
Remember the days of hunger |
For you never miss the water till the well runs dry |
You spit ina the sky |
It a go fall ina you eye mi say |
Don’t you bite the hands that feed you my brethren no |
Don’t you bite the hands that feed you |
