Ziggy Marley & Melody Makers - Water And Oil
Rastaman no mix up with no vagavanga.
Say dem try fi hold, hold, wha dem can't conquer;
Rastaman no mix up with no vagavanga.
They want to condemn the innocent,
For crimes which we did not commit.
They want to get good people mix up,
In their bag of tricks.
But water and oil can't mix;
Water and oil don't mix.
Water and oil can't mix;
Water and oil don't mix.
Say dem try fi hold, hold, wha dem can't conquer;
Rastaman no mix up with no vagavanga.
Dem try fi hold, hold, wha dem can't conquer;
Rastaman no mix up with no vagavanga.
Hear this!
Naah go like the Son if you no like the Father,
True we manifest under the same order.
Cock your ears and listen me want you hear ya part ya,
But first come in papa Ziggy as the eldest brother.
Yes, I hear the lies they've told,
Dem says Rasta did this and this.
What is the politician role?
Is it to create conflicts?
But water and oil can't mix;
Water and oil don't mix.
Water and oil can't mix;
Water and oil don't mix.
Jah who I praise break your silence,
Now that the wicked is accusing.
Attacking for no reason,
All we did was pray for them.
Now the way things happen fast,
Some things me naah go member.
But the day did cool, cool and collective lya,
Next thing me know some unwanted visitors.
Some devil worshipping, Rasta hating cold-blooded murdera,
Never get wha dem expect, dem expect lamb fi slaughter.
Hear this! This is Ragamuffin and him hitting harder,
We get up from weh we sit down to a strategic corner.
Me and the bwoy dem eye mek four, me mek a nervous swallow.
Prip around from left to right me look 'pon all me bredda,
Hold me head to the sky and make a final prayer.
Zoom! zoom! And everything take cover.
Look how fast lightning rod back out in all a dem face.
Quick! Me back out me no member wha it name.
Them never know the youth them would not lose them faith,
Through the grace of the Father everything set straight.
Water and oil can't mix;
Water and oil don't mix.
Water and oil can't mix;
Water and oil don't mix.
