Peter Tosh - Legalize It

Whatcha Gonna Do

Mama, mama, dem hold papa

If mi never jump two fence, dem hold mi too
So tell mi mama, whatcha gonna do?

Oh, mama, whatcha gonna do now?
Oh, mama, whatcha gonna do?
Oh, mama, whatcha gonna do now?
Oh, mama, whatcha gonna do?

Next week, next week case to case
Him haf a dread judge to face
Him a fi I to live in space
Or make di doctor dem work 'pon him face

Oh, mama, whatcha gonna do now?
Oh, mama, whatcha gonna do?
Oh, mama, whatcha gonna do now?

Next door neighbour dem hold your son
Seh dem find him with one gun
An' it's no need him start to mention
Him goin' to get a definite attention

Oh, lady, whatcha gonna do now?
Oh, lady, whatcha gonna do?
Oh, lady, whatcha gonna do?
Me seh want some lady, whatcha gonna do?

The cops, dem seh, him know nobody
So him haffi remain in custody
Him see the Babylon, him stand upon a screw
So him never know it was the curfew

Oh, lady, whatcha gonna do?
Me seh want some lady, whatcha gonna do?
Oh, lady, whatcha gonna do now?
Oh, lady, whatcha gonna do?

No bail lady, whatcha gonna do?
Me seh want some lady, whatcha gonna do?
Oh, lady, whatcha gonna do now?
Oh, lady, whatcha gonna do?
Dare fi mi to mention, whatcha gonna do now?
Whatcha gonna do?
