Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Dem a galong, dem a galong, dem a galong
Dem a galong, dem a galong
Dem a galong, dem a galong
Dem a galong, dem a galong
The dark side of Kingston Town, Kingston Town
No smile 'pon face, every man a wear frown
Fi a next man survive, one haffi get throw down
A inna nyam yuh food or greyhound
The dark side of Kingston Town, Kingston Town
Every man a fight fi wear the King's Crown
And when the moon full, all you hear dogs a howl
A wild, wild west showdown
When you hear, "Boom!"
Somebody drop
Chalk line, yellow tape, look at that
Bikini a pass with Jansport 'pon back
Get caught inna the trap and get flat
Mama bawl out, she inna shock
Police come, road block
Protesters say, "Murder wicked act!"
Inna white sheet the body wrap
The dark side of Kingston Town, Kingston Town
No smile 'pon face, every man a wear frown
Fi a next man survive, one haffi get throw down
A inna nyam yuh food or greyhound
The dark side of Kingston Town, Kingston Town
Every man a fight fi wear the King's Crown
And when the moon full, all you hear dogs a howl
A wild, wild west showdown
Bigga Hypez give we pill without pain
Road without drain
Work without paying
Shot 'away can't tame
Nuff of dem a work off of badman name
Extortion, pressure in the shops 'pon the lane
Jah play domino 'pon the corner
Drive by, shot a bite like piranha
Can't walk up the road fi check Aunty Lana
'Cause gunshot a beat 'pon the border
Dem youth yah no hold no order
A man a prove 'pon him one another
That a galong inna
Kingston Town, Kingston Town
No smile 'pon face, every man a wear frown
Fi a next man survive, one haffi get throw down
A inna nyam yuh food or greyhound
The dark side of Kingston Town, Kingston Town
Every man a fight fi wear the King's Crown
And when the moon full, all you hear dogs a howl
A wild, wild west showdown
Yeah
'Cause nuff of dem youth yah nowadays
Dem will be forever running from the law
Kingston no play thing
No keyboard nor guitar
Man will box the food out of your mouth before you could draw
Then turn 'round and buss a shot inna your jaw
And if you hear, "Red Stripe!"
No look fi lick a chuck
A the Ratty or the squaddy patrol a drive up
Man with weed a run and a hide
Wanted man a mass up
Some a dash gun over wall, a scale fence and climb up
Up inna Kingston Town, Kingston Town
No smile 'pon face, every man a wear frown
Fi a next man survive, one haffi get throw down
A inna nyam yuh food or greyhound
The dark side of Kingston Town, Kingston Town
Every man a fight fi wear the King's Crown
And when the moon full, all you hear dogs a howl
A wild, wild west showdown
