Old Time Something Lyrics by Solo Banton

Walk Like Rasta

2009

[Intro]
(Adlibs)
[Chorus]
Baddang baddang bang, brrrrng, brrrrng, brrrrng,, brrrrng, den
Hold tight something come again
Reggae music we defend
Brrrrng, brrrrng, brrrrng,, brrrrng, den
Reggae music nah gon end
So run go tell your friend
[Verse 1]
What kind of music brings you love? 
What kind of music brings you life?
What kind of music tells the people of the world to unite?
What kind of music keeps you dancing till the morning light?
Don't even mention the bassline, dat a roll through your spine
What kind of music, don't stop blaze the fyah 
Lightening and thunder with word, sound and power
What kind of music picks you up? keeps your spirit on a high?
When dem a try fi hold you down, you know dem can't stop your rise
We have a reggae fi mek you move and groove and reggae to fi you rock 
Reggae fi mek you run and jump and reggae to relax 
Reggae for when you go to work and when you're coming back 
Reggae for when you cook the ital stew inna di pot 
Reggae for your car, reggae for your bike 
Reggae for the day, reggae for the night 
Dark, the light, the dull, the bright, the spoon, the knife, the plane, the kite 
Black, the white, the left, the right, the war we fight, we give you the sight 
See the plight, we holding tight, we standing strong, we got to unite
Arm by arm, side by side, nah go run we nah go hide 
Jah a call we must abide, full of culture full of pride 
The wave we ride, we trod the tide
We run the mile, the flag we fly
Say reggae can't die 
[Chorus]
Baddang baddang bang, brrrrng, brrrrng den
So when something come again
Hey Mr run go tell your friend
So brrrrng, brrrrng, brrrrng,, brrrrng, den
So Solo Banton come again
Reggae music we defend
[Verse 2]
From way back when, yes my friend, right back then
When the men, used to play soundsystem
Put the track pon the version, pon di mic, style pattern
Set the trend, new fashion, pull up selecta come again
Crowd a say 10 out of 10,  more lyrics, no problem 
Ride the riddim till the end, a so it used to go back then
Talking about the foundation, reggae is the champion
The ghetto youthsdem solution, as in the beginning so it is inna the end
Somebody tell me what came first, chorus or the verse
Call the doctor and the nurse, dis ya lyrics a go hurt
Idiot soundboy haffi splurt, reggae music a mi work
Nah go behave like no jerk, to the top it is a cert
How much gold is this worth? Keep you money and your purse
You a go get what you deserve
Hail Selassie the first, rightful ruler of the earth
The conquering lion reigns over the universe
[Chorus]
Baddang baddang bang, brrrrng, brrrrng, brrrrng,, brrrrng, den
Hold tight something come again
Reggae music we defend
Brrrrng, brrrrng, brrrrng,, brrrrng, den
Reggae music nah gon end
So run go tell your friend
Baddang baddang bang, brrrrng, brrrrng den
So when something come again
Hey Mr run go tell your friend
So brrrrng, brrrrng, brrrrng,, brrrrng, den
So Solo Banton come again
Reggae music we defend
[Outro]
