I don't want to sound like I'm preachin' a sermon
But I've heard people say:
The early bird catches the worm;
'N there's a lot of good logic in that old cliche
There are certain obligations you just can't shirk
You've got to put the heat on to make the kettle perk;
And if you want it to be a good day
You've got to do a good day's work
You've gotta dig, dig, dig, dig for your dinner
Nothin's what you get for free
You've gotta dig, dig, dig, dig for your dinner
Never was a money tree
And furthermore, my friends, I must repeat
Nobody's livin' down on Easy Street;
And if you want to owe for groceries
You're gonna get an awful lot of "No sir-ee's."
You've gotta dig, dig, dig, dig for a dollar
'Taint as simple as you think
You can't purloin a sirloin
Or the butcher will put you in the clink
You just can't be a lazy bird
You've gotta get off o' your twig;
So you can afford your room and your board
And it's nice to have the price of a "cig."
Say, you've gotta pay the fiddler man
If you want to do a jig
You've gotta be as busy as a bee
To be a Mister B. I. G
And if you want some dig-dig-dignity
You've gotta dig, dig, dig, dig, dig for your dinner
Dig, dig, dig, dig, dig
You've gotta dig, dig, dig, dig for your dinner
Nothin's what you get for free
You've gotta dig, dig, dig, dig for your dinner
Never was a money tree
And furthermore, my friends, I must repeat
Nobody's livin' down on Easy Street;
And if you want to owe for groceries
You're gonna get an awful lot of "No sir-ee's."
You've gotta dig, dig, dig, dig for a dollar
'Taint as simple as you think
You can't purloin a sirloin
Or the butcher will put you in the clink
You just can't be a lazy bird
You've gotta get off o' your twig;
So you can afford your room and your board
And it's nice to have the price of a "cig."
Say, you've gotta pay the fiddler man
If you want to do a jig
You've gotta be as busy as a bee
To be a Mister B. I. G
And if you want some dig-dig-dignity
You've gotta dig, dig, dig, dig, dig for your dinner
Dig, dig, dig, dig, dig
(Spoken:) Right!
Version du film !
- I don't want to sound like I'm preachin' a sermon
- Oh, preach to me, preach!
- But I've heard people say:
- What did they say?
- They said, uh...
- The early bird catches the worm...
'N there's a lot of good logic in that old cliche
- You know he's right, listen to him children, he's right!
- There are certain obligations you just can't shirk
You've got to put the heat on to make the kettle perk
-) Now ain't dat da troo...?
Are ya list'nin' to da man?
Dis is da man who saved me...
I was wicked
I was mad
But dis is de man who showed me da way
Dis is da man who took me by da han' up to da glory room
Dis is da man who showed me da light
Dis man here, dis is da man who gave me da beat
Dis is da man who made me be righteous
Dis man...
(Kelly (sung):) And if you want it to be a good day
You've gotta do a good day's work;
You've gotta dig, dig, dig, dig for your dinner
Nothin's what you get for free
You've gotta dig, dig, dig, dig for your dinner
Never was a money tree
And furthermore, my friends, I must repeat
Nobody's livin' down on Easy Street;
And if you want to owe for groceries
You're gonna get an awful lot of "No sir-ee's."
You've gotta dig, dig, dig, dig for a dollar

Dig, dig, dig, dig, dig
