Rake 'n' Scrape song
(chorus)
I don't like rum, but rum like me,
It stick on me like a dog wit’ a flea
Listen to me people, now can’t you see
I don't like rum, but boy rum like me
It stick on me like a dog wit’ a flea
Listen to me people, now can’t you see
I don't like rum, but boy rum like me
I bin drinkin' rum for a long, long time
I drink so much rum, ya know it mus' be a crime
I was da smartest man in da whole country
Now I can' t'ink straight because, rum like me
Before I go to sleep, I take two shot or t’ree
I drink it erry mornin’ for my cup a tea
I use to work so hard, makin’ plenty money
Nah I can’ keep a job because, rum like me
Before I go to sleep, I take two shot or t’ree
I drink it erry mornin’ for my cup a tea
I use to work so hard, makin’ plenty money
Nah I can’ keep a job because, rum like me

Bahamas: Labour Productivity
What is Labour Productivity?
Labour productivity measures the amount of output produced per unit of labour input. It is typically expressed as the ratio of total output to the total number of hours worked or the number of employees. This metric is crucial because it indicates the efficiency with which labour resources are utilized to produce goods and services. High labour productivity means more output is produced per worker, which can lead to economic growth, higher wages, and improved living standards.
