Raw Riddim |
Come on in, the gate is wide and open |
Don’t be afraid, we’re not as bad as they say |
Do you, do you, do what you got to do |
Do you, do you, do what you got to do |
Do you, do you, do what you got to do |
Do you, do you |
We’re having fun down in the ghetto |
We’re having fun down in the ghetto |
We’re having fun down in the ghetto |
We’re having fun down in the ghetto |
When will the innocent stop being |
Punished for their innocence |
When will the innocent stop being |
Punished for their innocence |
When will the innocent stop being |
Punished for their innocence |
When will the innocent stop being |
Punished for their innocence |
Come on in, the gate is wide and open |
Don’t be afraid, we’re not as bad as they say |
Do you, do you, do what you got to do |
Do you, do you, do what you got to do |
Do you, do you, do what you got to do |
Do you, do you |
Now I’m at a corner, gonna check a sistren |
Left alone to suffer |
No I’m at the station, going to check a brethren |
Charge with instigating revolution |
See it ya, now me sey we willy winkle |

So skinning up your teeth, you know wi not smiling |
Because you upstairs downstairs committing sin |
Political wise and you don’t deserve a thing |
Every sufferer suffer sometimes or another |
Though you see wiinna knit ganz and sweater |
Wi belly could a full, but wi still a suffer |
House and land down suh it without furniture |
Though wi export wi coffee send wi farm worker |
Ex-amount a wi people still a suffer |
The ghetto gal from down suh, |
Man mi sey she sweet like a wah |
Man wi hail up Pam and big up Barbara |
Special request to Panserella Big up the youth |
Call Burro Chaga, soul man him dey yah |
In nough gold chain, silver |
When will the innocent stop being |
Punished for their innocence |
When will the innocent stop being |
Punished for their innocence |

Fe dance wid, you dance wid ityou nuh |
