Marcus Garvey Lyrics

Burning Spear

Marcus Garvey's words come to pass, -
Marcus Garvey's words come to pass.

Can't get no food to eat,
Can't get no money to spend, wo-oo-oo.
Can't get no food to eat,
Can't get no money to spend, woo-oo-oo.

Come, little one and let me do what I can do for you,
And you, and you, alone.
Come, little one, wo-oo-oo.
Let me do what I can do for you, and you, alone, woo-oo-oo.

He who knows the right thing, and do it not,
Shall be spanked with many stripes.
Weeping and wailing and moaning,
You've got yourself to blame, I tell you.
Do right, do right, do right, do right, do right.
Do right, do right, do right, do right, do right.
Tell you to do right, woo-oo-oo.
Beg you to do right, woo-oo-oo.

(..)

Where is Bag O' Wire, he's nowhere to be found,
He can't be found,
First betrayer who gave away Marcus Garvey!
Some say it on, first price.
Catch them, Garvey old,
Catch them Garvey, catch them, woo-oo-oo.
Hold them Marcus, hold them, woo-oo-oo.
Marcus Garvey, Marcus, woo-oo-oo.
