[Intro]
Big chat is all it got, so you see
When di right time come natty dreadlocks get it down
Thing call "The Big Showdown"
Natty dreadlocks versus ballhead (Murda!)
[Chorus]
Cah, now go tell 'em 'bout di boxin' an' ting
Cah, say, mi a go tell 'em 'bout di boxin' an' ting
Cah, Lord, it was di dread and di ballhead in di ring
[Verse 1]
But tell you, when di ballhead turn to di right
You hear ballhead, an' dem a shout out of sight
But tell you, when di dread turn to di left
Cah tell you, Lord-God, mi said, di ballhead deaf
Cah, little after dat, mi said, you cyaan find di ref (Bimma!)
[Refrain]
Weh do di ref, him think a mountain jeft (Bimma!)
Weh do di ref, him think a mountain jeft
[Chorus]
Now go tell 'em 'bout di boxing an' ting
Cah, Lord, it was very exciting an' ting
Cah, watch di twelve tribe keep cheering an' ting
Jah, watch di [?] keep laughin' an' ting
Jah, watch it with di dread an' di ballhead in di ring (Bimma!)
[Verse 2]
Cah, when di ballhead turn to di right
You hear ballhead, an' dem a shout out of sight
But tell you, when di dread turn to di left
Say, little after dat, mi say, di ballhead deaf
Cah, little after dat, mi said, you cyaan find di ref (Bimma!)
[Refrain]
Weh do di ref, him think a mountain jeft (Bimma!)
Weh do di ref, him think a mountain jeft
[Verse 3]
Say, little after dat di dread leave pon di rope
You hear pope Paul, say, dem started to shout
Di dread take boxin' for a big-big joke
Cah, pity dem no know, mi say, dat a knock-out
Natty drink one stout, him no run up him mouth
[Chorus]
Now go tell 'em 'bout di boxin an' ting
Lord, Scientist, him are di ting in a di ring
Cah, Lord, a Greensleeves keep dem rockin' an' swing
A weh mi say?
[Outro]
Said, every man, him [?] (Bimma!)
Said dat, mi put on mi shorts an' mi put on body socks
Mi wake out a mi bed, a mi go run for luck
