Eden A Try Lyrics by Charlie “Principal” Chaplin

1985

When ?????? I'n'I gather together
Jah love and blessings shall have their shower
So peace going on to all mankind
Cuz the Natty Dreadlock come make we dub it tonight

Why?

Becuz the heathen a try
Mi seh we badda dan dem (Bam birlim)
Mi seh enough of them come
But Chaplin nuh keep them friend (Wha me seh, dread?)
Mi seh mi stand up like Daniel
Inna di Lion den

Cuz Natty Dread mi seh
They loose respect, they loose respect
Tek a step, Natty Dread, take a step

Tell you all pass and never let go
Because no matter what they do
Mi seh no matter what them say (Lord)
Mi seh the I-yah a di boss DeeJay
So record afi play, mi seh mi afi go mi way but

Mi seh di eden a try
But we rougher dan dem (Hey)
And whole heap a heathen come
But I-man nuh keep them friend (Lord)

Cuz mi seh just like old Joshua
Command the sun fi stand still
Hundred thousand heathen down a Babilan get killed
Mi nuh come a dance fi no damned caned beer
Mi prefer spin over mi belly like damned wheel mill (?)

Natty Dread you affi skill to live inna di hill
A rest of life it nuh worth big deal
Mi bad pon di level and mi bad over hill
Seh Chritsmas time mi affi drink mi sour ale

You trouble dis ya DeeJay
U must get killed
Cuz tell u Natty Dread a so me sing
A Natty Dread a so me stay (Lord!)

Mi seh the heathen a try
Chaplin badda dan dem (Hey!)
Enough of them come
But I'n'I nuh keep them friend
Mi seh mi stand up like Daniel
Inna di Lion den

Cuz Natty Dread mi seh
Them a loose respect, them a loose respect
Tek a step, Natty Dread, take a step

A some a come from country and dem country-talk
A push up dem chest and tell me about dem a chalk??
But when you check it out, Lord, dem a run out a lock
Babilan fyah corner dem bone a fi ????? (Lord)

Mi seh the heathen a try
But Chaplin rougher dan dem

Mi seh mi tougher dan dem, rougher dan dem
Mi rougher dan dem, mi tougher dan dem
Mi rougher dan dem, mi tougher dan dem
Mi badder dan dem, mi madder dan dem
Natty Dread mi tougher dan dem
Mi seh the heathen a try, try, try
But we rougher dan dem

And when it come to culture lyrics
Mi not nuh stranger
Walking pon di road u might be inna danger
But enough entertainer face ever strain nah
One ting dem nuh know, seh, dem fi pray to Jah Jah (Lord)

Mi seh the heathen a try
Chaplin rougher dan dem
And enough heathen come
But I'n'I nuh keep them friend (Lord)

Because mi prefer stay home and read Jah Bible
Mi nuh wanna come trouble no man at all
But tell dem about dem high, big and dem mouth small
And kick dem all around like a damned football

Gwaan

Mi seh the heathen a try
Try but we rougher dan dem
Natty dread mi tougher dan dem
