Hey Dready Songtext

von Burning Spear

When some people see a
Rastaman, not knowing his
Name like any other man,
The first thing they say is,
"Hey Dready!".

Some Rastaman don't like the
Name, Dready.
I am happy with the name
Rastaman; I am happy with the
Name, Dready.
I have no intention to
Criticize my bredren; I have no
Intention to criticize my sistren.

When we wake and see the sun,
We should give thanks.

If there is no love, their will
Never be peace.
I have no intention to see the
Battlefield.

I want to live my life
With love,
Love for one another,
Regardless who they are:
Ladies and gentlmen, bredren
And sistren.

When some people see a
Rastaman, not knowing his
Name like any other man,
The first thing they say is,
"Hey Dready!".
It's not they're saying they
Hate Dready,
It's more like they're saying
They love Dready.

Hey Dready is no
Discrimination,
Hey Dready is the same man
The younger people like
To say Dready.

We've been holding up
This faith, all these years,
And the people will be there
To see Dready.

We've been holding up
This faith, all these years,
And the people will be there
To see Dready.

Hey Dready.

When some people see a
Rastaman, not knowing his
Name like any other man,
The first thing they say is,
"Hey Dready!".

We've got to be ready,
Moving as Dready.
We've got to be close,
Moving as Dready.
We've got to be sure,
Moving as Dready.

We've got to be ready,
Moving as Dready.
We've got to be close,
Moving as Dready.
We've got to be sure,
Moving as Dready.

When some people see a
Rastaman, not knowing his
Name like any other man,
The first thing they say is,
"Hey Dready!".

I want to live my life
With love,
Love for one another,
Regardless who they are:
Ladies and gentlmen, bredren
And sistren.

When some people see a
Rastaman, not knowing his
Name like any other man,
The first thing they say is,
"Hey Dready!".
