Rome Lyrics by Sugar Minott

0

[Intro]
I was in Abidjan the other night
I thought that was in the time of Jesus Christ
When he say to me

[Chorus]
Don't, don't go down at Rome
Natty, beg you don't, don't go down at Rome
Don't, don't go down at Rome
Natty, beg you don't, don't go down at Rome

[Verse 1]
For if you go to Rome
You've got to do like the Romans do
And you are an African
And you can't do like the Romans do (Oh no)

[Chorus]
Don't, don't go down at Rome
Natty, beg you don't, don't go down at Rome
Don't, don't go down at Rome
Natty, beg you don't, don't go down at Rome

[Verse 2]
Rome is for the Romans
And you are an Israelite
So what you're doing in a Rome
When you should be in a Africa (Oh well)

[Chorus]
Don't, don't go down at Rome
Natty, beg you don't, don't go down at Rome
Don't, don't go down at Rome
Natty, beg you don't, don't go down at Romе

[Bridge]
Rome could be anywherе around you
Rome could be anywhere around you (Oh well)

[Verse 3]
For if you go to Rome
You've got to do like the Roman do
All kind of simple things
And that is not the right for you
So don't you go down, don't you go down, no

[Chorus]
Don't, don't go down at Rome
Natty, beg you don't, don't go down at Rome
Just throw rock stone down at Rome
Natty, beg you throw rock stone down at Rome

[Verse 4]
But just like in the days of the Jesus Christ
They will want hold onto you
Just like in the days of his majesty
There will want to sit by you
Don't you go down, don't you go down
I was in Abidjan, I was in Abidjan
Just the other night when Jah say

[Outro]
Don't, don't go down at Rome
Don't, don't go down at Rome
Don't, don't go down at Rome
Don't, don't go down at Rome
Don't you go down, go down
