Black My Story (Not History) lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Black my story, black my story
Not his-tory, black my story
Black my story, black my story
Not his-tory, black my story

From education to civilization
From astrology straight to biology

Black my story, black my story
Not his-tory, black my story
African glory, African glory
What we want to see, is African liberty

From Marakeshi to Egypt, Rio-De-Oro
From Cape Town to Addis-Ababa and Congo

African glory, African glory
What we want to see
African liberty, give it to me

Oh, black my story, black my story
No not his-tory, black my story
African glory, African glory
What we got to see, must be Africa's liberty

From Mozambique to Libya
Oh land of the Uganda
From Senegal to Somalia
Oh the land of good Ghana

African glory, African glory
What we want to see is African liberty
Black my story, black my story
Black my story, not his-tory

A black my story, I and story
Black my story, not his-tory
Black I story, black my story
Not his-tory, an African glory, chuc'aw African glory

One Bright Day lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

One bright day the people got together
One bright day the people got together
One bright day the people got together
One bright day the people got together

There will be celebrations around the nations
Love without no care
There will be singing, plenty swinging
Live without that fear

One bright day the people got together
One bright day the people got together
Yes it was one bright day
Yes it is one bright day

There is music, you choose it, love it, love it
Hear this music, don't lose it, love it, love it

One bright day the people got together
One bright day the people got together
Hey, unnuh see the one bright day, South Africa free
Believe me, one bright day, a drugs free country

There was sunshine on the phone line
Wondering what you were doing
And then joy sent a note and this is what she wrote

One bright day the people got together
One bright day the people got together
Hey, unnuh see the one bright day, South Africa free
Believe me, one bright day, a drugs free country

Make it to the one bright day
A said the struggle to the one bright day
Struggle to the one bright day
Struggle to the one bright day

Make it to the two bright days
Make it to thre...ooh
Lord, the people got together
The people got together

So there can be, many, many, years and years and years

Who Will Be There lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

So I pop the question
Who will be there
Who will be there
Hey could you tell me who
Who will be there
Who will be there

We need each other more than we ever did or will
We got to get together
We got to do what Jah Jah will
Or get burnt within the fire, that's not my desire

Who will be there
Hey could you tell me who
Who will be there
Who will be there
Hey could you tell me who
Who will be there

So pack your bags, let's be on our way
We got to move out within the morrows
The cripple and the blind, you best not waste no time
We got to move out within the morrow
A question giving them horror

Who will be there
Who will be there
Hey could you tell me who
Who will be there
Who will be there
Could you tell me

Will you be there to see Jah shining face
And to drink life giving waters
Will you be there to see the morning sun
And to live a sweet life forever
A question needs an answer

Who will be there
Who will be there
Come on, come on, come on, come on and
Who will be there
Who will be there

Who will be there
This is the start of something new
Who will be there
So come on and tell me hey, will you
Who will be there
I said is a start of something brand new
Who will be there
Baby I wanna know who

Wanna know who
Tell me now will you
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Who will be there
Who will be there

When The Lights Gone Out lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

When the lights gone out and the food run out
All we have is just the music
When the lights gone out and the food run out
All we have is just the music

A battery tape playing in the street
My only relief
All we have is just the music

No matter what the crisis
It keep the spirit lively
Just as you feeling blue
Well I'll be there for you

When the lights gone out and the food run out
All we have is just the music
When the lights gone out and the food run out
All we have is just the music

Pretty girls dance in the street
My only relief
All we have is just the music

There ain't no dance
Unless you have good music
If you don't have good music
Then you don't have a chance

When the lights gone out and the food run out
All we have is just the music
When the lights gone out and the food run out
All we have is just the music

And a battery tape playing in the street
My only relief
All we have is just the music

When there ain't no justice to be found
They kicking you around
All we have is just the music

When the light gone out and the food run out
All we own is just music

You all know there ain't no party
Unless the music Irie
There ain't no love unless you show me

When the lights gone out and the food run out
All we have is just the music
When the lights gone out and the food run out
All we have is just the music

When the lights gone out and the food run out
When there ain't no justice to be found
Is just the music
When there ain't no answer from above
When there ain't no one to love
Is just the music

When there ain't no shoe on your feet
When there ain't nothing to eat
All we have is just the music
When the lights gone out and the food run out
All we have is just the music

Problems lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Problems, personal problems, people problems
We people got to solve them

Stop wishing and waiting, stop meditating on a fairy tale

Stop wishing, stop waiting, stop thinking of a fairy tale

Hey someone got a problem, personal problem
People problem, come now let us solve them

All Love lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

There's something going on over there
There's something going on over there
But there's something going on right here, and it's our life
I see some boogie, out of their shoes
Some just grooving, grooving to the groove
I am skanking, skanking loose
But we're all doing the same thing

It's just all love
Got to be all love
It's just all love
That's right, all love

Wake up your love in the morning
Wake up your love in the night
Shape up the love, shape up the love in the morning
Shape up that love tonight

There's something going on over there
Well there's something going on over there
But there's something happening right here
It's our life, I and, I and I life
Some smile all the time, some a pop, pop till you drop
Do a steady rock, rock steady easy
'Cause we're in the same thing

It's just all love
Got to be all love, tonight
It's all love
People give it, all love, now, what what

Shake up this place let the earth quake
Wake up this place let the earth vibrate
Shake up this place let the earth quake
Wake up this place let the earth vibrate
'Cause there's something going on

Well there's something wrong going on over there
And there's something wrong, way, way, way, way, way back there
But there's something right, right here
It's our life, I and I life

All love
I'm giving it, all love
I don't, I don't know that, all love
I'm giving it, all love

I can't hold back, all love
Tonight, it's just all love, all right
All love
Don't hold back, all love

There's something happening right here
There's something happening right here
There's something happening right here
All love, all love, all love, that's what going on, all love

Look Who's Dancing lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Look who's dancing
Look who's dancing
Look who's dancing now
Look who's dancing
Oh look who's dancing
Look who's dancing now

Well, first the dance floor
Was like a forbidden land
Where people would never dare to go
But now everyone's doing it
I said it's a dance galore

Look who's dancing
Look who's dancing
Look who's dancing now
Look who's dancing
Oh look who's dancing
Look who's dancing now

And some are dancing on their feet
Some are jumping off the floor
And look at old Granny "B"
She got the, she caught the, she knows the groove for sure

Look who's dancing

Look who's dancing now, right around
Look who's dancing

Look who's dancing now, get on the floor

Look who's dancing
Look who's dancing
Look who's dancing now
Look who's dancing
Check the dancing
Look who's dancing now, get on the floor

Do the ska, the rock steady, the ridim and blues
And if you catch them, then you do the della move
It nuh mek nuh sense to sit down, when you know you can groove
Any type of danve you do, you neither win or lose

And if your choice is reggae, you don't need nuh dancing shoes
Suh listen to the message, and you know you won't lose
Look who come, come dancing pow we dancing floor again

Love Is The Only Law lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Love is the only law to obey
Don't business what they say
Love is the only law to obey
Don't business what they say

We only live to learn to love
And no lesson is greater
Make it your gain, suffer no shame

Love is the only law to obey
Don't business what they say
Love is the only law to obey
Don't business what they say

We'll only live if we learn to love
And no, no, no, no treasure is greater
What it your aim, suffer no pain

Love is the only law to obey
I know you care what they say
Love is the only law to obey
I know you care what they say

If it in your mind to commit the sin
I hope you know, no destruction is greater
What is your aim, you better explain

Love is the only law to obey
Oh yeah, don't care what they say
Love is the only law to obey
Don't care what they say

Kid you only live if you learn to love
And no lesson is greater
Make it your gain, suffer no shame

Love is the only law to obey
Love is the only law to obey
Love is the only law to obey
I don't give a... what they say

I obey, you obey, she obey, he obey
We obey, you obey, I obey, you obey
She obey, we obey, you obey, we obey
Everyone, everyone, everyone

Love is the only law to obey
The law of life, the law of life
The law of life

This a music, a reggae music, a reggae music
All music, universal language, music, music music

Conscious Party lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Everyone is happy tonight
But not because of the world
And I know there'll be no fight
In such a Conscious Party

Everyone is happy tonight

And everyone is happy tonight
But not because of the world

Everyone is happy tonight
But not because of your world
And how could there be any fight
In such a Conscious Party
Everyone is happy tonight
But not because of the world
And how could there be any fight
In such a Conscious Party?

No booze to lick our head
Now we can't lose in life way

Tomorrow People lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, how long will you last?
Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, how long will you last?

Today you say you deyah
Tomorrow you say you're gone
But you're gone so long
If there is no love in your heart - so sorry
Then there is no hope for you - true, true

Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, how long will you last?
Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, how long will you last?

So you're in the air
But you still don't have a thing to spare
You're flying high
While we're on the low o-o-oh

Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, how long will you last? Tell me now
Tomorrow people, where is your past? No where
Tomorrow people, how long will you last? Ten years!

Stop tellin' me the same story
Today you say you deyah
Tomorrow you say you're gone and you're not coming back
If there is no love in your heart oh now
There will never be hope for you

Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, how long will you last? Ten years!
Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, tomorrow people, come on
Tomorrow people, tomorrow people, come on
Tomorrow people, tomorrow people, no soon come
Tomorrow people, tomorrow people, soon come
Tomorrow people, tomorrow people, today is here

If you don't know your past, you don't know your future
Everyone
Don't know your past, don't know your future everyman
Don't know your past, don't know your future, come on
Don't know your past, don't know your future

How many nations
How many people did that one catch
How many nations did that one catch
Don't know past, don't know your future
Don't know past, don't know your future

Tumblin' Down lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Here comes the eagle
Here comes the bear
And they're fighting to control
The lion dominion

But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down

Here comes synthetic food
And their big time money
And they want to control
Our body and soul

But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down

Here comes the maker
To crush the oppressor
Well I bet you didn't know
It was mind over matter

But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down

Here comes the eagle
Here comes the bear
And they're fighting to control
The lion dominion

But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down (Jah, Jah know)
But the load gonna come tumblin' down (Jah, Jah know)
But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down

How could you say
How could you say there ain't no Jah

How could you say there ain't no Jah

The signs before us

Soon men will know
Only Jah to fear
They are crazy, lazy
Always inventing
Shakey, flakey

A dem a say there ain't no Jah
But I a say

And I a say there is a Jah

Have You Ever Been To Hell lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

The heat is on so arm your soul
The heat is on so arm your soul
The heat is on so arm your soul
...Guiltiness...
...Lord Knows!...Guilty ones!

Have you ever been to hell?
Have you ever been to hell?
Have you ever been to hell and hell again? Guilty ones!
Have you ever been to hell?
Have you ever been to hell?
Have you ever been to hell and hell again?

Don't you know
Is there vanity
And inhumanity?
Cries from the guilty sayin'
Who's gonna save you soul?
Why didn't you give to the poor
Now you got to cry
Oh guity! And tell me

Have you ever been to hell?
Have you ever been to hell, blasphemers!
Have you ever been to hell and hell again (oh)?
Have you ever been to hell murderers!
Have you ever been to hell guilty ones!
Have you ever been to hell and hell again

So y'know you could tried some more
Like you never tried before
Got to get out of a ditch
We've got to remember
Earth conquers bone

Yes man's got to make the switch
So, have you ever been to hell?
Have you ever been to hell guilty one!
Have you ever been to hell again? Liars!
Have you ever been to hell pushers?
Now, have you ever been to hell?

Souldds are bought and sold
Cause for so much woes
The strain never ends
Sister, if you haven't been there
Don't wish to go! (Never)
It's not like a duppy show! (No no no)

Have you ever been to hell? Guilty ones!
Have you ever been to hell murderers!
Have you ever been to hell again arm your souls
Have you ever been to hell tell
Have you ever been to hell not o well!
Have you ever been to hell and hell and hell and hell

I'm gonna arm my soul
We got to arm our souls
Heed the warning
Satan!

Have you ever been?
Have you ever been y'all
Have you been
Have you ever been now
So have you been
Ever ben to hell and hell, and hell

Guilty ones, murderers, top notch
Have you ever been
Said I never been, never ever been

We Propose lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Callin' callin' callin'
Warnin' warnin' warnin'

We propose to live up our life
We propose to do what is right
We propose to free our people
We propose to live in Africa

This mess, yes we detest
Controlled by another hand
They're puppets, they're just some puppets
Their thing's just a puppet show

So we propose all people be free
We propose equality for you and me
We propose politicians know this
We propose united (so)

You confess to your wickedness (I said)
The people already know
Protest is not enough
For the blood that flows (that's why)

We propose to be freedom fighters
We propose because we are all nighters
We propose to lick them down
We propose to free Africa

Yes, it's very serious, not delirious
The things that we say
Now let me hear the music sound
For sure we're gonna stick around

We propose...
We propose all people must be free
We propose let music be free
We propose we're gonna do what is right (whoa)

This is not a request
We propose ghetto youth live right
We propose stop fight
We propose politicnas learn this right now
We propose free Africa

'Cause we're tired of talkin'...listen to the people
Tired of balkin'...this is not a request
Tired of gamin'...listen to the people
Tired of playin'...listen to the people

We propose politicians learn, learn, learn
We propose warmongers learn, learn, learn
We propose fascists learn, learn, learn
Open your ears... listen to the people

We propose...
No one is perfect in this un-perfect world

What's True lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

There are many stories (2 many)
Both old and new
What is true? (too too true, what is true?)

There are many stories (3 many)
Both old and new
What is true? (what's true, what's true, what's true)

Christopher Columbus discovered whom? (uh-uh)
If their leader is closer to God (who? who?)
Who is for whom?
Are they doing the right thing
For who? for who? for who?

There are many stories (2 many)
Both old and new
What is true? (too too true, what is true?)

There are many stories (3 many)
Both old and new
What is true? (what's true, what's true, what's true)

So men say they're doing their best
To put the people on the line
They say we're livnin' in their time
Not true, not true, not true

There are many stories (2 many)
Both old and new
What is true? (too too true, what is true?)

There are many stories (3 many)
Both old and new
But what is true? (what's true, what's true, what's true)

Did you know the name of the slave ship (save me lord)
That carried us through and through?
Did you know they change things?
But they can't change me or you, me or you

There are many stories (2 many)
Both old and new
What is true? (too too true, what is true?)

There are many stories (3 many)
Both old and new
What is true, what is true? (what's true, what's true, what's true)
What's true, what's true, what's true

Plain truth without no sugar
Plain truth
Just the plain truth, no preservatives
Plain truth
100% raw truth, is what we need
Raw truth is what we feel
Raw truth without your sugar
Plain truth

Dreams Of Home lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

We're having dreams of home
And you know we're not alone
Dreams of home
And I know we're not alone

Look how long we've been away
How long are we going to stay?
Look how long we've been away from home
How long are we going to roam?

Dreams of home
And I know we're not alone
Having dreams, having visions
Having dreams, having visions
Why can't we people see
Why can't we people see
This is not where we belong?
And there is a holy land

Dreams of home
Having dreams, having visions
This ain't no fantasy
Prophecy
Ain't nothin' strange
Life must be rearranged

Dreams of home
And I know we're not alone

And if you don't believe
I wish you well, I wish you well
And if you don't believe
I wish you well, I wish you well

Hey World! lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Hey world, look around today, people
Do you see, do you see, do you see what you like
Do like what you see, hahaha, you better wake up
Come on!

Hey world, aren't you afraid
The fool called man is gonna blow you away
The situation is drastic
And the green grass is turning to plastic

Well, I'mma sayin'
Hey world, you better wake up
Hey world, you got to wake up

Pretty green forest are almost gone
Once happy animal sing a sad song
Air polluted it smug
Ocean's fill with oil and rain

Come on, hey
Hey world, you better wake up
Hey world, you got to wake up

Missile flying higher than high
Once fall mountains and so high
The bubbling roots have lost their bubbles
Check it out, huh, we're in trouble
Well, well it seems you don't even care
You came around you must be square

So we singing
Hey world, you better wake up
Wake up, wake up
Hey world, you got to wake up
Ain't nobody gonna do it for you
Hey world, you better, you better wake up

Hey world, aren't you afraid
The fool called man is gonna blow us away
The situation is drastic
And your green grass turning to plastic
Huh, come on

Believe me
Hey world, you better wake up
Believe me
Hey world, you got to wake up
Ain't nobody gonna do it for you
You're gonna wake up
You're gonna shake up
Uh, you got to wake up
Ah, you got to shake up...

Freedom Road lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

That's why I'm marching, yes, I'm marching
Marching down freedom's road
Ain't nobody gonna stop me, nobody gonna keep me
From marching down freedom's road

Hand me my gun, let the bugle blow loud
I'm on my way with my head a-proud
One objective I've got in view
Is to keep a hold of freedom for me and you
That's why I'm marching, yes, I'm marching
Marching down freedom's road
Ain't nobody gonna stop me, nobody gonna keep me
From marching down freedom's road

Ought to be plain as the nose on your face
There's room in this plan for every race
Some folk think that freedom just ain't right
Those are the very people I want to fight
That's why I'm marching, yes, I'm marching
Marching down freedom's road

Ain't nobody gonna stop me, nobody gonna keep me
From marching down freedom's road
Now, Hitler may rant, Hirohito may rave
I'm going after freedom if it leads me to my grave
That's why I'm marching, yes, I'm marching
I'm marching down freedom's road

United we stand, divided we fall
Let's make this land safe for one and all
I've got a message, and you know it's right
Black and white together unite and fight

That's why I'm marching, yes, I'm marching
Marching down freedom's road
Ain't no fascists gonna stop me, no Nazis gonna keep me
From marching down freedom's road

Well but it is only began
Behind everyone's back
No fools get shot

And in Ethiopia
Military power turn them fools

Just to shoot a brother man
But, but when it was over
You put them in a slam

That was to win the elections
Now now now that you've won
I said you said you can do whatever you want

But still
Down in South Africa

Believe In Yourself (Arthur Theme Song) lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Every day when you're walking down the street
Everybody that you meet
Has an original point of view

And I say, "Hey!"
What a wonderful kind of day
Where you can learn to work and play
And get along with each other

You got to listen to your heart
Listen to the beat
Listen to the rhythm
The rhythm of the street

Open up your eyes
Open up your ears
Get together
And make things better
By working together

It's a simple message and it comes from the heart
Believe in yourself (believe in yourself)
Well, that's the place to start (to start)

And I say, "Hey!"
What a wonderful kind of day
Where you learn to work and play
And get along with each other

Hey!
What a wonderful kind of day
What a wonderful kind of day
Hey!

Could You Be Loved lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Could you be loved and be loved?
Could you be loved and be loved?

Don't let them fool ya
Or even try to school ya! Oh, no
We've got a mind of our own
So go to hell if what you're thinking is not right
Love would never leave us alone
A-yin the darkness there must come out to light

Could you be loved and be loved?
Could you be loved, wo now! - and be loved?

(The road of life is rocky and you may stumble too
So while you point your fingers someone else is judging you)
Love your brotherman
(Could you be - could you be - could you be loved?
Could you be - could you be loved?
Could you be - could you be - could you be loved?
Could you be - could you be loved?)

Don't let them change ya, oh
Or even rearrange ya! Oh, no
We've got a life to live
They say: only - only
Only the fittest of the fittest shall survive
Stay alive! Eh

Could you be loved and be loved?

No matter how you treat him, the man will never be satisfied)

Say something! (Could you be - could you be loved?)

Free To Be...A Family lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

We're all branches of the same family tree
But every family's different, don't you know?
Reaching for the sun comes very naturally
We've only got to let each other grow

I've got a home
I've found my place
I live with people
Who are glad to see my face

We're free to be
You and me
And you and me
We're free to be... a family

We're all working in the same big marching band
But drums and horns have different things to say
All together we'll ring music through the land
We've only got to let each other play

I've got a place
I've found my home
I'm only solo
When I want to be alone

We're free to be
You and me
And you and me
We're free to be... a family

So many groups in the family soup
So many combinations
Might be people who look like you
Or they might be no relation

Birds of a feather, they flock together
Yes, sometimes they do
But if a little bird joins an elephant herd
Hey, that's a family, too

We're all cooking up the same big barbeque
But we like spicy, you like sticky sweet
Maybe we can trade our recipe with you
Then how about we help each other eat

This is my home
These are my folks
These are our secrets
And our habits and our jokes

We're free to be
You and me
And you and me
We're free to be... a family

We're free to be
You and me
And you and me
We're free to be... a family

Friday's On lyrics - Ziggy Marley

To all the youths dem
Standing up to gun violence
Standing up to man made climate change
Power to the children

Out of school
Into the streets

The vibe is real
Out of school
Into the streets

The need is real

Let the feeling take you away
Let the feeling take you away, ye-ah
Let the feeling take you away
Let the feeling take you away, ye-ah, ye-ah

Hold them feet to the fire
Money money money
Is all them desire
Selling out the future's rights
Selling out future lives, yea
Hold them feet to the fire
Money money money
Build dem empire
Selling out the future's rights
Selling out future life, so

Friday's on
Unuh hear me now

Can't stop it now

Get out of school

The need is real

Let the feeling take you away (oh, don't you know)
Let the feeling take you away, ye-ah (the need is real)
Let the feeling take you away (Friday's on)
Let the feeling take you away, ye-ah, ye-ah (now)

Raise our voices higher
Demanding the justice that we desire
Stand up to climate change
A new generation came, yea
Raise our voices higher
Demanding the justice that we desire
Stand up for political change
The new generation came, oy

Friday's on
Unuh hear me now

Can't stop it now

HOME lyrics - Mathieu Koss & Ziggy Marley

Roller coaster
Got me up down
Last night under neon lights
So late, so long
In a new day with an old song
Sunrise, red eyes, it's time

Oh, it's been calling me, calling me, calling me, oh-oh
It's been pulling me, pulling me

Tired of running away
Tired of holding my breath, I see
New faces every day
But one place I cannot forget
Deep in the crowd now
But still feel alone
Tired of running away

Time to make my way back home
Make my way back
Make my way back home
Make my way back

So Jah, I know
I'll find a place someday
Don't know how I'm gonna make it there
I know I'll go
On a wing and prayer
Sunrise, red eyes, it's time

Tired of running away
Tired of holding my breath, I see
New faces every day
But one place I cannot forget
Deep in the crowd now
But still feel alone
Tired of running away

Time to make my way back home
Make my way back home
Make my way back
Make my way back

Oh, it's been calling me, calling me, calling me, oh-oh
It's been pulling me, pulling me
Oh, it's been calling me, calling me, calling me, oh-oh
It's been pulling me, pulling me

Tired of running away
Tired of holding my breath
Tired of running away

Time to make my way back home
Make my way back
Make my way back home
Make my way back
Make my way back home
(Find my way back home
Find my way back home
Oh Lord)
Got to find my way back home

Jammin' lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

(originally by Bob Marley & The Wailers)

Ooh yeah
All right

We're jamming
I wanna jam it with you
We're jamming, jamming
And I hope you like jamming too

Ain't no rules, ain't no vow
We can do it anyhow
I and I will see you through
'Cause everyday we pay the price
We're the living sacrifice
Jamming 'til the jam is through

We're jamming
To think that jamming was a thing of the past
We're jamming
And I hope this jam is gonna last

No bullet can stop us now
We neither beg nor we won't bow
Neither can be bought nor sold
We all defend the right
Jah Jah children must unite
For life is worth much more than gold

We're jamming (jamming, jamming, jamming)
And we're jamming in the name of the Lord
We're jamming (jamming, jamming, jamming)
We're jamming right straight from yard

Singing

Jah sitteth in Mount Zion
And rules all creation

Bop-chu-wa-wa-wa

See
I wanna jam it with you
We're jamming (jamming, jamming, jamming)
And Jamdown hope you're jamming too

Jah knows how much I've tried
The truth I cannot hide
To keep you satisfied
True love that now exists
Is the love I can't resist
So jam by my side

We're Jamming (jamming, jamming, jamming), yeah-eah-eah
I wanna jam it with you
We're jamming, we're jamming, we're jamming, we're jamming
We're jamming, we're jamming, we're jamming, we're jamming
Hope you like jamming too

And I hope you like jamming, I hope you like jamming
'Cause (I wanna jam it with you) I wanna jam it with you

I like, I hope you, I hope you like jamming too

I wanna jam it

Love Power lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

(from "Muppet Treasure Island" soundtrack)

Love power, a little love power
It's stronger than de hurricane
And softer than de summer rain
Oh, love power (what kind of power) a little love power
(It can lift you up) it lift you up when you get low
And make your life bright as de rainbow
There ain't no sun in de mornin' sky
Woh oh oh oh oh
De breeze ain't blowin' and de bird don't fly
Wo oh oh oh oh
Then someone kind reaches out a hand
And smile de warm sweet smile
And then your heart come to understand
What make de world spin
Where de magic begin
And what to believe in
It feel so good when everybody feel
Oh, love power (there's no higher power) a little love power
(Nothing in de world) it stronger than de hurricane
And softer than de summer rain
Oh, love power (everybody feel it) a little love power
(Oh, oh, oh) it lift you up when you get low
And make your life bright as de rainbow
So many people they feel so bad
Woh oh oh oh oh
They make de money but they still so sad
Woh oh oh oh oh
Nobody told 'em that it ain't that stuff
That make de life worth while
Cause even if you got enough
You got less than nothin'
Till you know for certain
What to put your faith in
It feel so good when everybody feel
Oh, love power (people can you feel it) a little love power
It lift you up when you get low
And make your life bright as de rainbow
Let me tell you now, woh oh
(Feel do inspiration) yay yay
(Don't it feel like heaven)
It make de soul and de spirit strong
When everybody come and every single one
They hear the song now
Oh, love power, a little love power
It stronger than de hurricane
And softer than de summer rain
(Can you feel it) oh, love power
(What kind of power) a little love power
It lift you up when you get low
And make your life bright as de rainbow
It lift you up when you get low
An make your life bright as de rainbow

Lyin' In Bed lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Praise god I say, praise god each day
He helped me to overcome
I remember once I couldn't get out of bed
So I sing and say... yeah

Lying in bed got nothin' to do
No one to rub my head
Playing my guitar my only friend
It's gonna last me till the end
Don't wanna land it
Wanna get out instead
I wanna feel free with activity

Above my bed bob face us all
Looking at me so passionately
Well in his eyes I saw the truth
The truth of a rastaman
The truth of a higher man

To the bridge
Don't wanna land it
Wanna get out instead
I wanna feel free with activity
Well I got lots and lots of company yeah
Alot of good vibes flowing around me
Nurses coming and wondering, o god
Is this really Ziggy Marley

Lying in bed got nothin' to do
No one to rub my head
Strumming my guitar my only friend
It's gonna last me till the end

Above my bed bob face us all, my daddy
Looking at me so passionately, lil brother
Well in his eyes I saw the truth, my name
The truth of a rastaman
The truth of a higherman

Rastafari no, I n I give praises
I n I thank Jah for, his health
If it was not for him
What would I, what would I've done
So I say amen

Don't wanna land it
Wanna get out instead
I wanna feel free with activity
Don't wanna land it
Wanna get out instead
I wanna feel free with activity
Don't wanna land it
Wanna get out instead
I wanna feel free with activity

Spin It Faster lyrics - Ben Harper & Ziggy Marley

DJ play that song for me
With the one drop beat
I'm not here to lean on the wall
Got to move my feet
I'm your everlaster
I'm your everlaster
Spin it faster
Spin it faster
Spin it faster
Spin it faster

Some need religion
Some just need a plan
Better use too much butter
Than to burn the pan
Reverend, priest, preacher and a pastor
Reverend, priest, preacher and a pastor
Spin it faster
Spin it faster
Spin it faster
Spin it faster

Repetition is to conviction
What a hammer is to a stone
Hard times they will come
But hard times they'll be gone

Go ahead and ask her
Go ahead and ask her
Spin it faster
Spin it faster
Spin it faster
Spin it faster

Stir It Up lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers
