Trench Town City Songtext

von Bob Marley

(Scoop, scoop, scoop, scoo-doo; Scoop, scoop wa-doo.)Up a cane river to wash my dread; Upon a rock I rest my head.
There I vision through the seas of oppression, oh-oo-wo! Don't make my life a prison.
We come from Trench Town, Trench Town (Trenchtown) -Most of them come from Trench Town.
We free the people with music (sweet music); Can we free the people with music (sweet music)? Can we free our people with music? - With music, With music, oh music! Oh-y, my head, In desolate places we'll find our bread, And everyone see what's taking place, oh-oo-wo! -Another page in history.
We come from Trench Town, Come from Trench Town; We come from Trench Town.
Lord we free the people with music (sweet music); We free the people with music (sweet music); We free our people with music, With music, oh music (oh music)! They say it's hard to speak; They feel so strong to say we are weak; But through the eyes the love of our people, oh-oo-wo! They've got to repay.
We come from (Trenchtown) Trench Town; We come from (Trenchtown) Trench Town; Trench - Trench Town (Trenchtown).
They say, "Can anything good come out of Trench Town?"(Trench - Trenchtown)That's what they say, (Trenchtown); (Trench - Trenchtown)Say (Trench - Trenchtown) we're the underprivileged people, So (Trenchtown) they keep us in chains:"Pay (Trench - Trenchtown) - pay - pay tribute to -" (Trenchtown).
We come from (Trench - Trenchtown); We come from (Trench - Trenchtown); Just because we come from Trench Town.
Not because we come from Trench Town; Just because we come from (Trenchtown)
