We do it cheap, hide our money in a heap
Send it home and make 'em study, fixing teeth
I got family, a friend in need, hand to throw the gasoline
A mobile phone hooked up to the scene
Hello my friend, yes, it's me
Don't be scared, there's something going on
I'm getting money since I grown
Could be dash, go out and hussel 'em
But I hate money 'coz it makes me numb
Hussel, hussel, hussel, grind, grind, grind
Why has everyone got hussel on their mind?
Hussel, hussel, hussel, grind, grind, grind
Why has everyone got hussel on their mind?
You think it's tough now, come to Africa
You think it's tough now, come to Africa
You think it's tough now, come to Africa
You think it's tough now, come to Africa
See, out there we are grinding like pepper
You can catch me on the motorway
Selling sugar water and pepper
I rep Africa not Miami
Hussel, hussel with M.I.A.
I'm broke, I've got indefinite stay
You can't touch me like leprosy
I hussel head from here to Sri Lanka
My mum told me to be an accountant
Bun that, I wanna work in a corner shop
Contact Sugu, he's got the contacts, mayne
I'm illegal, I don't pay tax, tax
EMA, yes, I'm claiming that that
Police I try to avoid them
They catch me husseling they say deport them
Hussel, hussel, hussel, grind, grind, grind
Why has everyone got hussel on their mind?
Hussel, hussel, hussel, grind, grind, grind
Why has everyone got hussel on their mind?
Hey, African boy
You know I'm big in Mozambique
Hello my friend, hello my friend
Hello my friend, yes, it's me
Hello my friend, hello my friend
Hello my friend, yes, it's me
4 by 3, 3 buy 3, buy 1 song, get 1 free
Maybe me, a bootleg CD, colour TV or a DVD
We got barrels in the sea
It's big enough to take a whole family, we drum on it
Ja jun cha cha gegujun cha, jun cha cha gegujun cha
Come, sit by me, let me tell you we
Don't do bling but we do white tee
Up some jungle, up some tree
One second, my phone's ringing
It's my friend Habibi, he then went drop called me
Cheap Moroccan got no credit than me
Y'all got less credit than me
I keep back tab at a shop like a gee
'Coz without me there'll be no choco Hershey
Hussel, hussel, hussel, grind, grind, grind
Why has everyone got hussel on their mind?
Hussel, hussel, hussel, grind, grind, grind
Why has everyone got hussel on their mind?
Hussel, hussel, hussel, grind, grind, grind
Why has everyone got hussel on their mind?
Hussel, hussel, hussel, grind, grind, grind
Why has everyone got hussel on their mind?
Hussel, hussel, hussel, grind, grind, grind
Why has everyone got hussel on their mind?
Hussel, hussel, hussel, grind, grind, grind
Why has everyone got hussel on their mind?
