Watch out, they will betray you,
So I won't have them where I dwell.
Yes, they will want to fool dread,
And dreadlock is dreader than dem.

Ye, evil men of Satan, why do you try to provoke I?
Do you hear, when the lion is sleeping?
Never you try to wake him, wake him.
Backbiters where will you run to, when knotty dread a come?
You would wish that day, you'd never been born.

Dreadlocks I tell you that:
I man can sight things from afar.
So you can take a tip from I,
A wise head keep better still tongue,
And silent river, you know, run deep.

He who have ears will hear.
He who have tongue will tell.
He who have eyes will see.
What you sow, is what you shall reap, yeah.
Weak heart, where will you run to when knotty dread a come?
You would wish that day, you'd never been born.

Dreadlocks I tell you that: Watch out, they will betray you,
So I won't have them where I dwell.
Yes, they will want to fool dread,
And dreadlock is dreader than dem.
