That where I am thou shaII abide,” yeah!
So Jah seh,
“Fear not for mighty dread,
‘Cause I ’II be there at your side.”
And – and down there – down there in the ghetto –
And down there we suffer
But I ’n ’I a-hang on in there
And I ’n ’I, I naw Ieggo.
But I ’n ’I a-hang on in there
And I ’n ’I, I naw Ieggo;
