Dreadlocks In Moonlight

Lyrics

A time to sow and a time to reap, yes, my friend
 The seed you sow, that's what you shall reap again
 You light the fire to burn this Nyah
 But it no work out, you're just a weak heart
 You send your big neck police friends fe come cool I up
 But it no work
 For Jah, Jah walk right in and cool up the scene
 You get a jerk
 Far better put they trust in Jah
 Shall like be Mount Zion-I
 That shall never removeth, iyah
 But abideth for-iwa, Jah Jah
 The knife that stick de sheep a go stick de goat, do you hear?
 How you gonna feel when de knife is at your throat?
 For sowing bring reaping, and reaping is harves'
 The seed that you sow a yard that's what you shall reap, yeah
 Do you hear?
 Jah is I light and salvation, whom shall I fear?
 Jah de protector of I life, of whom shall I be afraid?
 Hypocrite inna broad daylight, parasite inna dim light
 Dreadlocks in moonlight, bald head at sunrise, oh
 Jah Jah is I shepherd, I shall not want
 Do you hear? Do you see?
 Jah Jah is I shepherd I shall not want
 You send your big neck police friends fe come cool I up
 But it no work
 For Jah, Jah walk right in and cool up the scene
 You get a jerk, you get a jerk
 It no work
 You set your struggle Little did you know
 Jah put shackles on your trail
 It didn't work, it couldn't work
