Culture - Jah Rastafari (re-recording)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Too long in our little ghetto
Wrong's been going on, let's protest
Children of Israel who really, love rights

For Jah set I and I as a watchman
Around Babylonian walls
Oh, oh, children of Israel
I and I and I should never hold I peace
Day or night

We shoulda bust down Babylon walls
Prepare ye the way
Prepare ye the way for Jah people
Fight down war and crime
Fight down war and crime
Rasta, fight down war and crime
And build up righteousness

Hear me now, Jah Rastafari
Jah Rastafari, Jah Rastafari
Preserve our people
Jah Rastafari, Jah Rastafari
Jah Rastafari, preserve our people

(..)
Ooh yeah, ooh, ooh, ah
Mmmmm, oh yeah, ah, ah, oh yeah

Jah set I and I as a watchman
Around the Babylonian doors
Rasta singing, oh, oh, children of Israel
I and I and I should never hold I peace
While we are penalized, day or night

We shoulda bust down Babylon doors
Prepare ye the way
Prepare ye the way for Jah people
Fight down war and crime
Fight down war and crime
Rasta fight down war and crime
And build up righteousness

Hear me now, Jah Rastafari
Jah Rastafari, Jah Rastafari
Preserve our people
Jah Rastafari, Jah Rastafari
Jah Rastafari, preserve our people

Hear me now, Jah Rastafari
Jah Rastafari, Jah, Jah Rastafari
Preserve our people
Jah Rastafari, Jah Rastafari
Jah Rastafari, preserve our people

Jah Rastafari, Jah, Jah Rastafari
Jah Rastafari..
