| This generation
|
| Rules the nation
|
| With version
|
| Music happens to be the food of love
|
| Sounds to really make you rub and scrub
|
| I say: Pass the dutchie 'pon the left hand side
|
| Pass the dutchie 'pon the left hand side
|
| It a go done
|
| Give me the music make me jump and prance
|
| It a go done
|
| Give me the music make me rock in the dance
|
| It was a cool and lovely, breezy afternoon
|
| (How does it feel when you got no food?)
|
| You could feel it 'cause it was the month of June
|
| (How does it feel when you got no food?)
|
| So I left my gate and went out for a walk
|
| (How does it feel when you got no food?)
|
| As I pass the dreadlocks' camp I heard dem say
|
| (How does it feel when you got no food?)
|
| Pass the dutchie 'pon the left hand side
|
| Pass the dutchie 'pon the left hand side
|
| It a go done
|
| Give me the music make me jump and prance
|
| It a go done
|
| Give me the music make me rock in the dance
|
| So I stopped to find out what was going on
|
| (How does it feel when you got no food?)
|
| 'Cause the spirit of Jah, you know he leads you on
|
| (How does it feel when you got no food?)
|
| There was a ring of dreads and a session was there in swing
|
| (How does it feel when you got no food?)
|
| And you could feel the chill as I seen and heard them say
|
| (How does it feel when you got no food?)
|
| Pass the dutchie 'pon the left hand side
|
| Pass the dutchie 'pon the left hand side
|
| It a go done
|
| Give me the music make me jump and prance
|
| It a go done
|
| Give me the music make me rock in the dance
|
| 'Cause me say listen to the drummer
|
| Me say listen to the bass
|
| Give me little music
|
| Make me wind up me waist
|
| Me say listen to the drummer
|
| Me say listen to the bass
|
| Give me little music
|
| Make me wind up me waist
|
| I say, pass the dutchie 'pon the left hand side
|
