Lyrics
The smell of violence is upon the city
So, brother, fussing and fighting is really not pretty, ya
Out of the hills of Zion comes Jah lightning an' thunder
Holy Mount Zion-I (Yeah)
A natty dread on the mountain top
Singing, natty dread on the mountain top
A natty dread on the mountain top
Singing, natty dread on the mountain top
You was down in di valley for a very long time
Natty, how you come over?
You was down in di valley for a very long time
Natty, how you come over?
No plane wasn't passing, no breeze wasn't blowing
Natty, how you come over?
Lord, you got to keep your head up high
Keep your head to go to Zion
A Mount Zion, Mount Zion
Holy Mount Zion, that's the place we want to go
A Mount Zion, Mount Zion, holy Mount Zion
Hail to the Lord an' I say King David greatest son
An' hail to the time of fighting, we live in a
Jah came to fight, an' question, an' to free I quality
An' truth an' right must live forever (Yeah)
A natty dread on the mountain top
Singing, natty dread on the mountain top
You was down in di valley for a very long time
Natty, how you come over?
Dreadlocks stand for dominate
Dreadlocks to become the sweet Nazarene
So nat up, nat up, nat up, dread up, dread up (Roots, come on, yeah)
Black people never know themselves 'til dem back against the wall
An' then dem start to blame pon di ballhead
Then dem start to blame it pon di ballhead
Dem say ballhead are this, an' dem say ballhead are that
But some dread are do a whole lot of thing, as I would say
But only righteous dread I have lock off
An' only righteous dread I have lock off
I nah block off no fornication dread (Ya)
