Thief Is In The Vineyard - The Congos

Thief is in the vineyard

Trying to spoil the harvest

Thief is in the vineyard

Trying to spoil the harvest

They try to change the thought of love and happiness

To lust and disgrace, shame and disgrace

They try to change the thought of love and happiness

To lust and disgrace, shame and disgrace

Thief is in the vineyard

Trying to spoil the harvest

Thief is in the vineyard

Trying to spoil the harvest

But Jah is going to pluck them out, pluck them out

With lightning and thunder right now

And Jah is going to pluck them out, pluck them out

With lightning and yunder

All their worship is pride

And vanity, vanity, vanity, yeah

They got no love in their heart

For humanity, humanity, humanity, yes

All their worship is pride

And vanity, vanity, vanity, yeah

They got no space in their heart

For reality, reality, reality

Thief is in the vineyard

Trying to spoil the harvest

Trying to spoil the harvest

But Jah is going to pluck them out, pluck them out

With lightning and thunder right now

Yes Jah is going to pluck them out, pluck them out

With lightning and thunder

If you can recall the colour

Of the red white and blue, the red white and blue

It’s the symbol, for the barber-man too, the barber-man too

It goes on and on

To the policeman too, the policeman too

It moves on and on

To the soldier-man too, the soldier-man too

Thief is in the vineyard

Trying to spoil the harvest, oh yeah

Thief is in the vineyard, ah yeah

Trying to spoil the harvest.
