Whip Them Jah Jah lyrics

Only Dread can come over

Babylon them a weeping and a mourning, yes

Weeping and a mourning, Lord

Babylon them a weeping and a mourning, yes

Weeping and a mourning

Because dem badda, dem a drop out

And them no love to come over

Only Dread can come over

Babylon can't get over, no

So whip them Jah Jah, Jah Jah whip them, Lord

Whip them Jah Jah, Jah Jah whip them

Whip them Jah Jah, Jah Jah whip them, Lord

Whip them Jah Jah, Jah Jah whip them

The Dread dem a dread it

And the Locks dem a watch it

Babylon dem no like it

And the daughter them love it

And now the weakheart dem a scatter

And the Dread dem a satta

'Cause the Dread dem know better

Jah Jah live forever, yes

Whip them Jah Jah, Jah Jah whip them, Lord

Whip them Jah Jah, Jah Jah whip them

Whip them Jah Jah, Jah Jah whip them, Lord

Whip them Jah Jah, Jah Jah whip them

Only Dread can come over

Babylon can't get over, no, no

Yeah!

The Dread dem a dread it

And the Locks dem a watch it

Babylon dem no like it

And the daughter them love it

And now the weakheart dem a scatter

And the Dread dem a satta

'Cause the Dread dem know better

Jah Jah live forever, yes

Whip them Jah Jah, Jah Jah whip them, Lord

Whip them Jah Jah, Jah Jah whip them...
