The song is call "Natty Work Fi Him Honest Livin'", I would say (Yeah)
And when you try to reach the top, dem would-a like to see you drop
Cah dat, mi go Uptown fi go hustle one bread
Said, here came a hooligan to full mi up of lead
An' then mi gone down a public an' go lay down in a bed
I-ya check fi di living, I no check fi di dead
An' dat are dead drop (Huh), dat no rat trap
Say, dat are dead drop (Man), dat no rat trap
Cah, natty work fi him honest livin'
Show dem natty work fi him honest livin'
'Cause if you try to reach the top, dem would-a like to see you drop
You try to reach the top, dem would-a like fi see you drop
But natty work fi him honest livin'
Show dem natty work fi him honest livin'
Cah dat, mi go Uptown, you hear dem gather 'round
Di people-dem a shout out, a give out di
See one deh an' him a thief, just di
Way how natty dread, I would say (Yeah)
Mi a show you, dat no right, dat no right, dat no right
Thou shall not judge a book by its cover
You got to read it to see what you discover (I would say)
Ride over (Now-now-now)
Make we step it right over (Woah, baby)
Make we step it right over
Say, now let me treat you like a crimson an' clover
Every I wa' in a fi your Land Rover (Are you mad?)
Make we step it right over (Now-now-now)
Like a crimson an' clover (Huh!)
'Cause if mi go downtown fi go hustle one bread
Said, here came a hooligan to full mi up of lead
An' then mi gone down a public an' go lay down in a bed
I-ya check fi di living, I no check fi di dead
Dat are dead drop, an' dat no rat trap
Say, dat are dead drop, an' dat no rat trap
Cah mi say, ten green bottle, say, di standing on di wall
Say, one green bottle shall accidental fall
An' then him clear di whole dance hall (Man)
An' dat are dead drop, an' dat no rat trap
Dat are dead drop, an' dat no rat trap
Dat are dead drop, natty, dat no rat trap
Say, dat are dead drop, natty, dat no rat trap (Move!)
The song is call "Natty Work Fi Him Honest Livin'", I would say
Down in a Babylon
Cah mi say, go there, natty, go there (Are you mad?)
Go there, natty, go there (Down in a Babylon)
