Dreadlocks In Moonlight - Lee "Scratch" Perry

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 weakheart

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, baldhead 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…
