Rudie Lyrics by UB40

Cover Up

2001

Hold it down Rudie enough is enough
Kill it with kindness, kill it with love
No more deceiving; so throw off the gloves
Kill them with kindness kill them with love

Fill them with feeling straight from the heart
Dealing with healing will set you apart
Respecting their meaning; releasing the dove
Will chill them with kindness; instil them with love

Don't lose it Rudie get high on the buzz
Remember how kindness, could fill you with love
The sun could be shining with blue skies above
In love with the kindness, so kind of in love

Believing in nothing is hard to believe
Discovering something is hard to achieve
A change must be coming the times right because
We're in need of some kindness and needing some love
