Long time we see it ah come
No joke ting
Everything we got dem wah fi take it
And everything we have dem wah fi own it
Same marijuana, you know it
Canada claim seh dem own it
In America dem smoke it
Inna Africa we grow it
Ah weh di world ah come to it tun up
In Jamaica we bun it
Remember the days
When Babylon used to throw a man inna jeep
And lock you up down ah half way tree
You can't come ah street
True di weed, true di weed
Everything we got dem wah fi take it
And everything we have dem wah fi own it
Same marijuana, you know it
Canada claim seh dem own it
What will be for I and I
Inna Babylon
Dem wah fi throw we down inna the goldy
And leave wi fi suffer down there
And tek away all of the wee money
And left di youth dem down deh fi shot it
Some a call themselves shotta
And all we haffi do ah grow marijuana
Di sovereign country Jamaica
One and all, must unite and be strong
Together we must do it hand in hand
And we'll progress, I'm telling you man
Life can be better
Because dem wah fi tek weh our marijuana
It turn up, it turn up, it turn up
And everything we got dem wah fi take it
And everything we have dem wah fi own it
Same marijuana, you know it
Canada claim seh dem own it
In America dem smoke it
Inna Africa we grow it
Ah weh di world ah come to it tun up
In Jamaica we bun it
Big respect to the Rasta man
Who defend di land
Dem bulldoze dem house and bun we out
‘Cause dem nuh want wi fi strong
Di bank nah loan no money
Because likkle man bankbook look funny
Oh what a wicked life
Ah how di Rastaman a guh survive
Di creeper inspiration
And yes we give it to the nation
Everything we got dem wah fi take it
And everything we have dem wah fi own it
Same marijuana, you know it
Canada claim seh dem own it
In America dem smoke it
Inna Africa we grow it
Ah weh di world ah come to it tun up
In Jamaica we bun it
Everything we got dem wah fi take it
And everything we have dem wah fi own it
Same marijuana, you know it
Canada claim seh dem own it
In America dem smoke it
Inna Africa we grow it
Ah weh di world ah come to it tun up
In Jamaica we bun it
