Peace |
All over the world, you can hear the people bawling for peace, as I would tell |
it to you |
But I say, you gotta find some kind of peace in your heart, as I would tell you, |
we would love apart, as I would say |
Whole lotta cats are looking for war, as I would say |
Why they look for war, they gotta stay far |
you know |
We’d be able to go find some kind of star, as I would tell you |
If you deal with some kind of war, you really got to stay far, as I would say |
Catering for the ruder people living today, as I would tell it to you, |
come on down with me |
Each and every one, you got to live and wait, and live for liberation, |
and that would be great |
Brothers, you got to be free from the chain of slavery |
Joining hands and heart in unity, and shout the word love of Mary Lee, |
as I would say |
Get on the track for the cage is back, as I would tell you |
And I tell you, start the double attack |
Don’t you be like the man called Mister Mack, as I would tell you, |
don’t go in him track |
When the music hits you, you got to stick with it, you know |
Gotta keep on moving like a jojo |
Like some kinda mojo, as I would say |
Cats, you gotta move around and play |
If you really catch a screw, then you are some kind of bobby-boo |
Madness is gladness and gladness is madness |
So you gotta have some kind of sadness around you |
You gotta step on down and give your trouble |
And I tell you, I’d be on the scene on the double, as I would tell you, baby |
Never try to have no hate in your mind |
Kinda peace you will find, as I would say |
Blow, daddy, blow, like you never blow before, coming from Jamaica way |
Kinda sound a deal with no kind of war, as I would say |
Deal with no violence, you will go down in silence, be some kind of and go over |
the fence |
And I really don’t mean this with no pretense, you know |
(scatting) |
Shu-be-du-be-du-be, come on down with me |
And be my spree, be free like a bird in a tree |
War is ugly, as I would tell you |
When I say ugly, I mean double ugly |
But we be on the double |
Put away your trouble, like I say |
Slip and dive and move and groove |
Now baby, let me see you move along |
