Hey Mr. Miller, gimme di good sensimilla

Hey Mr. Planter, gimme di good sensimilla
Over yah, over yah, over yah (Well)
Early this morning as I rise
Me an' mi bredrin touch di countryside
Go check Bobo Quay fi some of di good sensimilla
Just to open up my eyes
As I a trod it forward
Me nearly caught some good one
Bobby back me down fi a search
But through di mercies an' di blessings of Selassie I love
Dem coulda never arms an' gloves
Tell me, what a gwaan now?
Dem searching for the weed
An' dem couldn't get a spliff fi burn

Cocaine blow your brain
An' leave you inna misery an' pain

Hey rude boy, go get yourself drained
Well, this is not no suggestion

So why we get molestation
From the mysteries of Babylon?
Tell me, what a gwaan now?
Dem searching for the weed
An' dem couldn't get a spliff fi burn

Sister Bobby searching for the weed
An' dem couldn't get a spliff fi burn

Dem searching for the weed
An' dem couldn't get a spliff fi burn
From the East to the West, to get some of the best
As I walk di forward, me nearly drop down inna mess

Fi a search, for a search
But through di mercies an' di blessings of Selassie I love
Dem coulda never arms an' gloves
