Natty Dread

Dread, Natty Dread now, (Natty Dread)

Dreadlock Congo Bongo I. (Natty Dread)

Natty Dreadlock in a Babylon: (Natty Dread)

A dreadlock Congo Bongo I. (Natty Dread)

Eh! Children get your culture (Natty Dreadlock)

And don't stay there and gesture, a-ah, (Natty Dreadlock)

Or the battle will be hotter (Natty Dreadlock)

And you won't get no supper. (Natty Dreadlock)



Natty Dread, Natty Dread, now; (Natty Dread)

Then I walk up the first street, (Natty Dreadlock)

And then I walk up the second street to see. (Natty Dreadlock)

Then I trod on through third street, (Natty Dreadlock)

And then I talk to some Dread on fourth street. (Natty Dreadlock)

Natty Dreadlock in a fifth street, (Natty Dreadlock)

And then I skip one fence to sixth street. (Natty Dreadlock)

I've got to reach seventh street: (Natty Dreadlock)

Natty Dreadlock Bingy Bongo I (Natty Dread)

Natty dread, Natty Dread, now, (Natty Dread)

Roots Natty Congo I. (Natty Dread)



Oh, Natty, Natty,

Natty 21,000 miles away from home, yeah!

Oh, Natty, Natty,

And that's a long way

For Natty to be from home.



Don't care what the world seh; (Natty Dread)

I'n'I couldn't never go astray. (Natty Dread)

Just like a bright and sunny day: (Natty Dread)

Oh, we're gonna have things our way. (Natty Dread)

Natty Dread, Natty Dreadlock, (Natty Dreadlock)

Dreadlock Congo Bongo I. (Natty Dreadlock)

Don't care what the world seh; (Natty Dreadlock)

I'n'I gonna have things our way. (Natty Dreadlock)
