Lyrics UB40 - Bling Bling

(CHORUS)
Bling, bling...yeah...aweh mi simting
Bling, bling...emerald cut ring
Bling, bling...yeah...aweh mi simting
Bling, bling chapparita and ting

Fifty men dead foor this golden chain
Each link forged by a poor man's pain
Mined from below with sweat and fear
Brought to a shine with a widow's tear

Fifty men dead for this diamond ring
Dat takes the shine off the cheap bling thing
Kind a mek you think it no bonafide
Fi wear souvenirs from the men that died

CHORUS

If you really love me then don't by me a ring
Diamonds and pearls they don't mean anything
All that I wants is already here
Sitting by my side, you got nothing to fear

CHORUS

Fifty men dead for this golden band
Underground with a pick in their hand
Cutting dirt where sun nuh shine
Digging to survive in the man's goldmine

How many dead for this royal crown
This holy shrine we gather round
Worship the dollar 'pon your hands and knee
Humbled in the presence of your jewellery

CHORUS

If you really love me then don't by me a ring
Diamonds and pearls they don't mean anything
All that I wants is already here
Sitting by my side, you got nothing to fear

CHORUS
