MAN IN THE HILLS - Burning Spear [W. Rodney]
Come along my brother, come along
Let us dp the thing we suppose to do for our mother.
Come along my sisters, come along too.
And if we should live up in-da in-da in-da in-da in-da in-da
Live up in-da (And if we should live up inthe hills)
And if we should live up in the hills (And if we should live up inthe hills)
Live up in the hills, the hills
(And if we should live up in the hills)
My brother go to the river,
To carry the water-a
The water
My sister wash up the dishes,
She even go to the shop,
Bring in the groceries,
When my smaller brother run around
and pick up the bramble to keep the fire blazing
To keep mama fire burning
Blazing fire fire
(And if we should live up in the hills)
And if we should live up in the hills
(And if we should live up in the hills)
My mother hard at work,
Work my mother for the children,
My mother hard at work,
Work my mother for the children,
My daddy is gone way over, far over,
Working up the cultivation
Coming with food Daddy
Coming Daddy come come with food, come.....
(And if we should live up in the hills)
DOOR PEEP - Burning Spear [Winston Rodney]
Door peep shall not enter this a holy land
Where wise and true man stand sipping from this cupful cup of peace
Not one shall enter
Not one
Door people shall not enter
This a holy land
Where wise and true man stand
Sipping from the cup of peace
We chant down a babylon
We chant down a babylon
We chant down a babylon
Chant down a babylon
Give thanks and praise
Give thanks and praise
Give thanks and praise
You give thanks and praise
To the holy man of creation
You chant down a babylon
Chant down a babylon
We chant down a babylon
Chant down a babylon
Give thanks and praise
Give thanks and praise
Give thanks and praise
Give thanks and praise
To the holy man of creation
Door peep shall not enter
This a holy land
Where wise and true man stand
Sipping from the cup of peace
We chant down a babylon
We chant down a babylon
We chant down a babylon
Chant down a babylon
