Josey Wales - Leggo Mi Hand Gateman
Ribbit!
Lord have mercy
Jesus Christ
Nice
[Verse 1]
Man, me went to a dance a Clarendon
Me and a big fat thing named Pam
But as me reach at the dance gate
The gateman a hold on 'pon me woman hand
One box me give him inna him blasted face
Money scatter out, all over the place
Babylon butt me with a big 38
Hear me now, dread
[Chorus]
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
[Verse 2]
Me sleep under me cellar when me live a Papine
And anything me eat, it haffi ice, gold, and green
Me beetroot, me ackee, man, me cabbage, and me beans
Lord
[Chorus]
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
[Verse 3]
You love brag and you love show off, Lord
You mouth long like a shoveled mouth shark
Put me neck 'pon a block, and even chop it off
Put it inna wheel barrow, fling it down a wharf
Me duppy come back and it still a laugh
[Chorus]
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
[Verse 3]
Take your five dollar out of my 20 dollar, Lord
Give me back me 15 dollar change
Cah when you deh a dance gate you act so strange, Lord
[Chorus]
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
[Verse 4]
Have me brethren, Lord, him rest a New York
Take him telescope and him spy inna yard
Him couldn't see nobody cah the place too cork
Me haffi laugh
Lord have mercy
Jesus Christ
Hey, take your hand out of me arrow shirt collar
This yah sound is the only one me follow
Move your foot off of me Sterling and Wool
Me come inna the dance and me belly well full
You mussi think I-man come yah fi love
I never sail 'pon raft, Lord, neither boat
Hey

Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
Lord have mercy
[Verse 5]
Me say, you hold the gate fee you don't pay a 50 cent
Yet you have the most argument
I waan box and kick you, bring you to the government, Lord
[Chorus]
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
[Verse 6]
Your arm smell like a rotten sardine
Jah know, you talk and your mouth no clean
Look 'pon your face and it look so lean
[Chorus]
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
Hey

[Verse 3]
You put me neck 'pon a block, and even chop it off
Put it inna wheel barrow, fling it down a wharf
Me duppy come back, Lord, it still a laugh
Hey

Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
Jesus Christ

Me never come 'pon no bus, a strictly bicycle
When me leave this yah dance, a pure empty bottle, Lord
Me just a skank, me knee dem a tremble
So, hey gateman, you fi have principles, Lord
[Chorus]
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in

And me inna my full suit of green
Me say, we stand up 'round the music machine
The people dem a tell we say we look neat and clean, Lord
[Chorus]
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
Leggo me hand gateman, mek me come in
