Dillinger - Lion Rock lyrics
[Dillinger - Lion Rock lyrics]
Black people, this is a time to unite and
To bring down the wall of the, jah Jah
Wow, people, what you saying over there?
Amsterdam livin' light, dispensation
Lion rock i say, the power of the pipe
And the power of the tap
The power of the lordly Ra-Jah (Wow)
Never love
Well I say, dem never love Marcus Garvey
Bam-diddla-diddla, Never love Paul Bogle
Dem never really, really love Adrien Brody
Dem never, never, never love Selassie I, they
Love Selassie I, they love Selassie I
And if you love him, you will
Live, and if you hate him, you will die
Bang-diddla-diddla, say fi love Rastafari
So, make mi tell you, say fi love Rastafari
So, make mi tell you, say-a Jah
Jah, Jah Jah, Jah Jah, jah Jah high
