Dreadlock Holiday

Lyrics

I WAS WALKIN' DOWN THE STREET
 CONCENTRATIN' ON TRUCKIN' RIGHT
 I HEARD A DARK VOICE BESIDE OF ME
 AND I LOOKED 'ROUND IN A STATE OF FRIGHT
 I saw four faces one mad a brother from the gutter
 They looked me up and down a bit and turned to each other
 (I say) I don't like cricket-A OH NO I love it-A Yeah
 I don't like cricket-A NO NO I love it-A Yeah
 Don't you walk through my words you got to show some respect
 Don't you walk through my words 'cause you ain't heard me out yet
 WELL HE LOOKED DOWN AT MY SILVER CHAIN
 HE SAID "I'LL GIVE YOU ONE DOLLAR"
 I SAID "YOU'VE GOT TO BE JOKING MAN
 IT WAS A PRESENT FROM ME MOTHER"
 He said "I like it I wan' it I'll take it off your hands
 An' you'll be sorry you'd crossed me
 You'd better understand that you're a long, a long way from home"
 (and I say) I don't like reggae-A NO NO I love it-A HEY
 I don't like reggae-A Yeah Yeah I love it-A Oh Yeah
 Don't you cramp me style don't you queer me pitch
 Don't you walk through my words 'cause you
 Ain't heard me out yet
 I HURRIED BACK TO THE SWIMMING POOL
 SINKIN' PINA COLADA
 I HEARD A DARK VOICE BESIDE ME SAY
 "would you like something hotter"
 She said "I've got it you wan' it my harvest is the best
 And if you try it you'll like it and wallow in the
 Dreadlock holiday, dreadlock holiday, dreadlock holiday"
 (and I say) don't like jamaica OH NO I love her HEY
 Don't like jamaica OH NO I love her OH YEH
 Don't you walk through my words you got to show some respect
 Don't you walk through my words 'cause you ain't heard me out yet
 I don't like cricket-A OH NO I love it-A dreadlock holiday
 I don't like reggae-A OH NO I love it-A dreadlock holiday
 Don't like jamaica HEY I love her dreadlock holiday
 I don't like cricket-A OH NO I love it-A dreadlock holiday
 I don't like reggae
