Saturday Night Jamdown Style

0

[Intro]
When lightening an' thunder clap, weakheart drop!
In dis time (In dis time)
In dis time (You got to make up your mind)
In dis time (Yeah, you know?)
Today I may be here, an' tomorrow I may be gone
Like one that keepeth his mouth
Shall give the greatest laugh in dis time
In a dis a time, say, you got to really mind
Cah, natty forward down di line
An' gonna make you feel so fine
[Chorus]
Cah, dis a dreadlocks time (Say-say-say)
Cah, dis a dreadlocks time (Wicked man!)
Said, I say, you got to really mind
An' step it down the line
But, I make you feel so fine, a like a enginе on the line, a keep on rolling down Chicago line, but I play dеm down di line
I say, you wicked have fi mind (Go there!)
So mi say, cah, dis a dreadlocks time (Yeah, you know?)
[Verse 1]
Whether you white, or a whether you black
Say, you got to hit the spot
Say, no bother look back
[Chorus]
Because, a dreadlocks time
A so mi say, I said, you wicked off di mind
So mi say now, a natty dreadlocks step it down di line (Go there!)
[Verse 2]
Cah, said, you pick him up, you lick him down, him bounce far up
Pick him up, you lick him down, him bounce far out
Di gift of God is eternal life
But, natty, wages of sin is death (No bother fret)
Cah, fret, you a fret, a you no get nothing yet
Cah, little after dat a you a smoke cigarette
Watch your step; gonna take a little [?]
Hey now, check a mini weapon, ain't no make a little step
I said, you watch your little step in dis ya time, a so mi say
[Chorus]
Cah, dis a dreadlocks time (Go there!)
Cah, dis a dreadlocks time (The wicked have fi mind)
Cah, dis a dreadlocks time (A natty bubble down di line)
[Verse 3]
Forward down di line; but I make you feel so fine
Cah, engine on the line, a keep on rolling down the line, a keep on rolling down the line, but I make you feel so fine, but I tell you dat to watch your little step, but you got to check [Scatting]
I said, you watch your little step in dis a time
[Chorus]
Cah, dis a dreadlocks time, make we step it down di line
Cah, dreadlocks time, a make we step it down di line
Cah, dreadlocks time, a make we step it down di line
[Verse 4]
Make you feel so fine!
I said, a whether you are black or not, a natural fact
I said, a whether you are white, a ain't no fuss nor fight
[Chorus]
A natty step it down di line in dis a time
Cah, natty rock it down di line in dis a time (Hey!)
Cah, dis a dreadlocks time [Scatting]
Say, di wicked off di mind [Scatting]
Dis a dreadlocks time (Go there!)
So mi say, because di wicked off di mind (Yeah, you know?)
[Verse 5]
If a fish would only keep his mouth close
He wouldn't get caught, by a line, so mi say
[Chorus]
Cah, di wicked off di mind (Hey!)
Say, cah make we step it down di line [Scatting]
Di wicked off di mind (Go there!)
Say, cah make we bubble down di line [Scatting]
Cah, dis a dreadlocks something
Said, a natty dreadlocks something (Go there!)
A dis a boss-man something (Do it!)
I say, no trouble fi mi something [Scatting]
[Outro]
Step it down di line (Do it, Jah!)
I tell you, say, di wicked off di mind (Go there!)
A natty dreadlock keep on bubble down di line
In summer time, as I would tell you
