I’m back from meeting the Rockers uptown
And you can tell ’em they were top ranking
Wa do dem? They play reggae with no frown
Just skanking to de riddim, waist winding
Lee Perry’s Black Ark continues sailing
Crossing many rivers from Mount Zion
Freddie McGregor’s big ship is slowing
Approaching the great port of Babylon
Where you can take Bob Marley’s bus: hop on
The pressure drop, two sevens clash, the sound
Of sirens, police and thieves dem fighting
And scaring both Jamaica and London
Meanwhile the man in the hills has come down
Marcus Garvey take up social living
Thanks!
