Nicodemus - Days Of Olden lyrics

Maybe this shack-attack
Everytime mi chat, you better rock
Some in a pants, some in a frack 
(Look at dat)

For, mi say, days of Egypt
Mi never know a ship
For, days of Egypt, mi never know a ship
Say, all dem a tell you 'bout di Titanic
Say, all dem a tell you 'bout di Titanic
Mi want to go to Africa, mi have to trod it
Mi want to go to Africa, mi have to trod it
For, mi say, as I trod along, say
As I trod along say, as I trod along
I hear a knives of a band
Say, man, cah, let mi tell you
Was di Egyptian
Dem come a in a ten and a in a thousand
Dem come with chariot and di bandwagon
A weh him have in a him hand
Him left di wicked
Dem in a di bottom of di ocean
Mi say, as I trod along, say, as I trod along
Say, I Puppa Demus at your microphone stand
For, when mi know mi right, mi say
The wicked say mi wrong
Well, a even when mi weak a
Dem a talk 'bout mi strong
Say, tam shoe John, him, said, a mystic man

But, days of Egypt, mi never know a ship
Say, days of Egypt, mi never know a ship
Say, all dem a tell you
'bout di young Titanic
Mi want to go to Africa, mi have to drive it
Say, as I trod along, say, as I trod along
Say, as I trod along
I hear a knives of a band
Say, man, come, let mi tell you
Was di Egyptian
Dem come a in a ten and a in a thousand
Dem come in chariot and di bandwagon
A weh him have in him hand
Him left di wicked
Dem in a di bottom of di ocean
Well, a king without a throne is
Like a man without a home
For, some a throw stones
Some a mash down Rome
For, every single lion
He go sling a di stone
Some fi kill di president with
Di donkey jaw bone say, one thing a live
Have fi hear fi go come
Well, a king without a throne is
Like a man without a home
Tell you, dis a one, it a di talk fi di town

Days of a Egypt, say, we never know di ship
Days of Egypt, say, we never know di ship
Say, all dem a tell you
'bout di young Titanic
Mi want to go to Africa, mi have to drive it
Say, as I trod along, say, as I trod along
Say, as I trod along
I hear a knives of a band
Say, man, cah, let mi tell you
Was di Egyptian
Mi say, dem come down in a ten, for mi say
In a thousand
Dem come in chariot and di bandwagon
For, mi say, a weh him have in him hand
Mi say, him left di wicked
Dem in a di bottom of di ocean
Say, I ya pupa Demus at your microphone stand
For, when mi know mi right, mi say
The wicked say mi wrong
Well, a even when mi weak a
Dem a talk 'bout mi strong
Mi say, tam shoe John, him, said
A mystic man
You fi lookin' at yourself, black man
Jah man, for dis a one
A come fi nice up di land hail Jah man
Him man come fi nice up chi land
He make a disco, as I trod along, say
As I trod along

Say, as I trod along
I hear a knives of a band
Say, man, come, let mi tell you
Was di Egyptian
