Burning Spear - Chant Down Babylon: The Island Anthology

Jah No Dead

They tried to fool a Black population
By telling them that Jah-Jah dead
And they try to fool a Black population
By telling them that Jah-Jah dead
And I knows that Jah no dead

Jah no dead
Jah no dead
Jah no dead, Jah no dead
Jah no dead, Jah no dead, oh, no
Jah no dead

My knowledge increase
My memory reflect
Marcus Garvey did say
"A rumour, rumour, rumour, rumour, rumour"
Marcus say
"A rumour, rumour, rumour, rumour, rumour"
Marcus say

Jah no dead
Jah no dead

It was I man who say
"It's green and gold, it's the rainbow
The lion, the lion did crown the king
The lion, the lion did crown the king
Inna Addis Ababa, Africa"

Jah no dead, Jah no dead
Jah no dead

Meet me at the bank of the beautiful river
When your journey has end
I and I will discuss about this matter

Jah no dead, Jah no dead
Jah no dead
