Back Off Lyrics by Johnny Osbourne

Johnny Osbourne Meets Roots Radics

1980

[Chorus]
Back off, back off
No bother come with your ring-craft
Back off, back off
No bother come with your ring-craft

[Verse 1]
Some of dem just a sink off
Some of dem just a rip off
Some of dem just a mass off
An' some a dem just a pass off
No bother come with your skill-craft

[Chorus]
Back off, back off
No bother come with your ring-craft
Back off, back off
No bother come with your ring-craft

[Verse 2]
Some of dem just a gwan soft
An' some of dem, dem look soft
No bother check, seh, mi too soft
You better gwan with your ring-craft

[Chorus]
Back off, back off
No bother come with your ring-craft
Back off, back off
No bother come with your ring-craft

[Verse 3]
Some of dem just a sink off
Some of dem just a rip off
Some of dem just a mass off
An' some a dem just a pass off
So, no bother with your skill-craft

[Chorus]
Back off, back off
No bother come with your ring-craft
Back off, back off
No bother come with your ring-craft

[Verse 4]
Some of dem just a sit and laugh
An' some of dem carry news from the mass
Some of dem just a show off

[Chorus]
Back off, back off
No bother come with your ring-craft
Back off, back off
No bother come with your ring-craft

[Verse 5]
Some of dem just a drop off
Some of dem just a rip off
Some of dem just a sink off
Some of dem just a mass off

[Outro]
Back off, back off
No bother come with your ring-craft
Back off, back off
