Back Off

0

[Intro]
The other word for sweat is perspiration
Well, this one is gonna rock the nation from station to station
For your musical satisfaction, I would say
Yeah, me heart Rasta so well

[Chorus]
Back off, back off and make the breeze cool me off
Back off, back off and make the breeze cool me off

[Verse 1]
Some wicked people did invent witchcraft
In American zoo you have the giraffe
Me clean mi mercy dispense down at the wharf
Me have a bath fresh cold, me bond to cough
Say, when me get a joke, Jah man, mе are go laugh

[Chorus]
Back off, back off and make the breezе cool me off

[Verse 2]
Higher the mountain, the cooler the breeze
Tighter the couple are the harder them squeeze
The colder the breeze, the more you will sneeze
That's true, huh, well watch out, star

[Chorus]
Back off, back off and make the breeze cool me off
Back off, back off and make the breeze cool me off
Back off, dawta, me a perspire
Back off, Rasta, me a perspire
Me say back off, mi bredda, me a perspire (Huh)
Back off, back off and make the breeze cool me off
Back off, back off and make the breeze cool me off

[Verse 3]
Me clean mi mercy dispense down at the wharf
Say, when me get a joke, Jah man, me are go laugh
Me have a bath fresh cold, me bond to cough
In American zoo you have the giraffe

[Chorus]
Back off, back off, some love the witchcraft
Back off, back off and make the breeze cool me off

[Verse 4]
Who Jah bless no man can hate
Them ya style yah lyrics you could never underrate
No way, no way, gal, you hear a weh me say? (Step it, huh)

[Chorus]
I said back off, back off and make the breeze cool me off
Back off, back off and make the breeze cool me off
Astronauts go at space in a spacecraft
The name for little cow, Jah man, it is a calf
Back off, back off and make the breeze cool me off
Back off, back off and make the breeze cool me off
A wah so, El Paso
Said, El Paso, this are Johnny Ringo

[Verse 5]
Cah when me catch the mic, dem have fi gather around
Dem say that Johnny Ringo, me a mash it down
That's why the people dem have to crowd me around (But)

[Chorus]
Back off, back off, make the breeze cool me off
Back off, back off, make the breeze cool me off

[Verse 6]
The other word fi sweat is perspire
Say, when you get old, you retire
Jah man, me love to smoke good sensimilla
People, dem a say that me are super-duper
Cah in a fi mi house, mi no use grater
Say, in a my house, man, are strictly blender
Johnny Ringo under roots and culture
So black people, you no galang like a vulture (Just)

[Chorus]
Back off, back off and make the breeze cool me off
Back off, back off and make the breeze cool me off

[Outro]
Some wicked people did invent witchcraft
Some wicked people did invent witchcraft
But morning, mister buddy, me no buddy fi you (Bimma)
A who dead, a pope Paul
Jah Jah hit him with a lightning ball (Lee)
Pope Paul dead and gone (Hey)
Him never write no will (Bimma)
But me glad fi know say him dead still
Him did a give mi baby mother birth control pill
Jah man, she used to stuff it down at Negril (But)
Mi say back off, back off and make the breeze cool me off
