Too Long Now

Ohh
Give thanks for life
We give thanks for life
Ooh

They doing it for too long now (for too long now)
Doing it for too long (its too long now)
Ask dem a whose land now
Them selling out the people
Ooh
They doing it for too long now (for too long now)
Why yuh have to do wrong now (why do wrong now)
Ask dem a whose land now
Them selling out the people
Alright again
Dah one yah name lightning and thunder
Ago shook dem
Man ago buke the farmer man dem
And de cook dem
And tell de ganja man fi plant de kush dem
When de yute dem a step up
Yuh betta push dem
Nuff bwoy bex how nuh gyal nah look dem
And dem bex how nuh promoter nah book dem
Say dat dem a soldier but me seh a some rook dem
Inna de bottomless pit dem me ago put dem
Doing it for too long now (for too long now)
Doing it for too long (its too long now)
Ask dem a whose land now
Them selling out the people
Ooh
They doing it for too long now (for too long now)
Why yuh have to do wrong now (why do wrong now)
Ask dem a whose land now
Them selling out the people
Alright again
Cause Dem nuh fraid fi nil yuh
Dem nuh fraid fi kill yuh
Don’t think for a second dat they wouldnt spill yuh
Dem nuh fraid fi kill yuh

Babylon dem ready fi broke down

Don’t think for a second dat they wouldn’t spill yuh
Dem nuh fraid fi kill yuh

Too long now (for too long now)
Doing it for too long (its too long now)
Ask dem a whose land now
Them selling out the people
Ooh
They doing it for too long now (for too long now)
Why yuh have to do wrong now (why do wrong now)
Ask dem a whose land now
Them selling out the people
