Back In The Days

The beauty and splendour is what I remember
 When I'm thinking of back in those days
 We played volleyball and climbed waterfalls
 And watch the sunset end of the day
 At night we would listen to the number one sound
 And dance the night away
 King Stitt used to mash it
 U Roy used to rock it
 Big Youth always a flash it
 Brigadier Jerry used to cork it
 And everyone feeling happy
 I remember the cane man on the street corner
 Selling that sweet sugar cane
 He used to peel it and bag it and talk to me nicely
 And even remember my name
 That sensimilla smell I remember so well
 While rocking in the dancehall
 Alcapone used to mash it
 Tippertone Sound used to cork it
 Dennis Brown was inseparable
 Everyone feeling irie
 Count Matchuki used to mash it
 Jimmy Cliff always a rock it
 Millie Small, the lollipop girl
 And everyone feeling irie

 Paragons used to mash it
 Wailers was the rudeboys
 And everyone feeling irie
 Delroy Wilson used to rock it
 Clarendonians "Shoo-Be-Doo-Be" doo
 Phyllis Dillon used to nice it up
 And everyone feeling irie
 Toots and The Maytals a "Bam Bam"
 Hopeton Lewis a "Boom-Shacka-Lacka"
 And everyone feeling irie
 Techniques "You Don't Care For Me" at all
 Melodians a "Sweet Sensation"
 Everyone feeling irie, irie
