Dem a run dem a come
Fe shoot up the dance
Dem a run dem a come
Fe shoot up the dance
Dem gwaan like cowboy quick pon de draw
Dem want respect and to be big bout ya
Dem a worship gun instead of Almighty JAH
And a wear gold chain and drive fancy car
Call demself posse, gwaan like mafia
And a model demself off a nuff gangster
Capone, Babyface and Dillinger
But history book seh dem never get very far
Now dem full a bullet hole and favour tea strainer
So listen carefully and consider
When you shooting up your bredren and
A kill you sister
You better take a trip to South Africa
And hide inna de bush like
A freedom foghter
And help Black people get liberation
And get respect and I will call
You a DON
Nuff respect and I will call you a man
Dem a run
Dem a come
Nuff respect
Get respect
