Man a mek move   Got to mek a plan   People find food to feed their families   Youths dey a streets   Man a plant food fe him livelihood   Brothers in the camp   Yet the people dance   Youth a preach lyrics   Man a lick shot   Dancehall youth just lick a shot   Some a build speaker box   Fe dem business that in a society   If not the shackle is the boot   If not the chain it's your brain   Lord what a strain, strain, strain   Say Babylon have the people rocking   Tell you know       (chorus)   Chain, chain, chain, we got to break those chains   Chains off my feet   Strange 20th century    (repeat)   Come again my love   It's been your love too   I believe it's this feeling child       The youth a get wise   The youth a get stronger   In a time like this no Uncle Tom business na goan so   Not so, oh come we come to shake the house down   Lord lick off some rooftop ka we need your attention   Rock some sound   Can't shut this down   Rock some sound   All the people rally around   Stop fight natty dread locks down, down, down   Babylon got the people rocking to and through   Turn them out inside       chorus
