No, no, Brother Joe
No more
Just can't take it no longer, Uncle Joe
Oh gosh, you're squeezing my toe
Just can't take it no longer, Uncle Joe now
Oh gosh, you're squeezing my toe, yeah
Yeah, reform institution
Wanna set my mind in an illusion, yeah
And I don't like your system
So I won't be a victim
Oh no, oh no, no, no, no, no, no
Oh no, no, no, no, Uncle Joe
Turn me loose
Don't try to kill the goose
This life is not for me
In your TV
No, no, Brother Joe
No, Joe
No, no, no, no, no
Oh gosh, no, yeah
Squeezing my toe
Got to let me go
Holy Jah Temple
Brother Joe
You're squeezing my toe
Yeah, reform institution, yeah
Wanna put my mind in an illusion
But no
And I don't like the system
So I won't be a victim
No more, no more, no, no, no, no, no
Jah Lord have a beard across
Alone and all the world go free
Free as a bird that fly in the tree, see
When mankind have a know himself and realize
That the firmer you stand on the ground
You shall never be eaten by a worm
Come off of me toe, bwoy
You should never stand on a Rastaman's toe
Squeezing my big toe
Some say
Bwoy, me a tell you say things happen sometime
That sometime I man woulda do all some vicious things
I man woulda use fire all a gun
But the good Lord said, "Son, be careful of what you do"
Humble calf suck the horse milk
Rastafari liveth and reigneth in the hearts of all man
This day continually
Some say them come from San Diego, little Vigo
Yo, no mash my toe
Bwoy, you come here as a stranger
And you shouldn't turn a ranger
'Cause you get yourself in danger
'Cause we in a manger
No creep for the babe
Bwoy, the bird come down from the sky
Come pick up the weed seed
And Babylon still no take heed
And free up the Cali weed
Big Joe come off of me big toe
'Cause you have squeeze me heart long time ago
No mercy for the merciless in this time
Judgement shall render unto the weak
Steal from thy brethren vineyard is corruption
Steal from thy brethren is bitter to the belly
Let Jah rise and let his enemy be scattered
Let them that hate to die flee before I
As wax melteth before the burnt child fire
That's I, this I
Yo, Brother Joe
You mashing my big toe, yeah
Long time ago now
You a keep I down
Let I go and free up I Cali weed
And take heed
