Natty Dread Songtext

von Jacob Miller & Inner Circle

Dread, Natty Dread now
(Natty Dread)
Dreadlock Congo Bongo I
(Natty Dread)
Natty Dreadlock in a Babylon
(Natty Dread)
A dreadlock Congo Bongo I
(Natty Dread)
Eh! Children get your culture
(Natty Dread)
And don't stay there and gesture, a-ah,
(Natty Dread)
Or the battle will be hotter
(Natty Dread)
And you won't get no supper
(Natty Dread)

Natty Dread, Natty Dread, now
(Natty Dread)
A dreadlock Congo Bongo I
(Natty Dread)
Natty Dreadlock in a Babylon
(Natty Dread)
Roots Natty, Roots Natty!
(Natty Dread)

Then I walk up the first street
(Natty Dread)
And then I walk up the second street to see
(Natty Dread)
Then I trod on through third street
(Natty Dread)
And then I talk to some Dread on fourth street
(Natty Dread)
Natty Dreadlock in a fifth street
(Natty Dread)
And then I skip one fence to sixth street
(Natty Dread)
I've got to reach seventh street
(Natty Dread)
Natty Dreadlock Bingy Bongo I
(Natty Dread)
Natty dread, Natty Dread, now
(Natty Dread)
Roots Natty Congo I
(Natty Dread)

Oh, Natty, Natty,
Natty 21, 000 miles away from home, yeah!
Oh, Natty, Natty,
And that's a long way
For Natty to be from home.

Don't care what the world seh
(Natty Dread)
I'n'I couldn't never go astray
(Natty Dread)
Just like a bright and sunny day
(Natty Dread)
Oh, we're gonna have things our way
(Natty Dread)
Natty Dread, Natty Dreadlock
(Natty Dread)
Dreadlock Congo Bongo I
(Natty Dread)
Don't care what the world seh
(Natty Dread)
I'n'I gonna have things our way
(Natty Dread)
If a egg Natty in a the red
(Natty Dread)
If a egg Natty in a the red
(Natty Dread)
Natty Dread, Natty Dreadlock...
