BROTHER AND MY WIFE

Marko D Rupia 2000 (Rukwa)



BROTHER AND MY WIFE
I didn't know that my brother
Could  do such as thing to me
And still  when I  close  my eyes
I end up saying  he didn't mean so
And I self-depricated
With my Own sadness
And ooh  my blood  brother
Has stolen my wife from me
Last time when my brother  came
At my house I saw in their  faces
'Yeah  a deep smile on their  cheeks
I end up saying just in-laws
Out of my mind  I was
And at the end my brother
Wants to see me lowering  my shoulders
As the teardrop flowing  out of my eyes
The world is not fair
And out  of many why it should end up
Be my brother  and my Own wife
Marko D Rupia
