Who Shoot First

Anthony B


Yo yo you you 
Haile the Iley one of Iration 
This is I livication 
To dupe to don, to group to gang 
No bad man live long 
Listen to the bobo song 
It's Armageddon or revolution, but we got to find the solution 
You nuh hear the bobo tell you say 

A who shoot first a no who draw 
Caan escape from the long arms of the law 
Who shoot first a no who draw 
Say you living fi yu life too raw 
Who shoot first a no who draw 
You a murder whey live a bruk law 
Who shoot first a no who draw 
Me tell you Haile Selassie I you say you nah 

Bob Marley shot the sheriff and mi go shot the deputy 
Every bad man mi say you life in a jeopardy 
Gunman no live long look out fi di cemetary 
Fi di new millenium the twenty first century 
If you blood thirsty mi have love fi quench it 
Put dem up front row, a back bench mi bench it 
Waan free waterway, so no bother trench it 
Hey, belly empty so how gun so plenty 
You no hear the Bobo youth chant daily 

A who shoot first a no who draw 
Stop tell me say you a outlaw 
Who shoot first a no who draw 
You living fi yu life too raw 
Who shoot first a no who draw 
Mama say leggo badness you can't 
Who shoot first a no who draw 
Me tell yu Haile Selassie I you say you nah 

Well the woman you rape last night a smaddy mother 
The man you shot last night a smaddy father 
Dem things deh it caan right we chant fi better 
Me know you a no maker so how you come a taker 
We a di role model whey di youth dem a follow 
Me no waan dem think a pure killer come from the gutter

A who shoot first a no who draw 
Caan escape from the long arms of the law 
Who shoot first a no who draw 
Say you living fi yu life too raw 
Who shoot first a no who draw 
You a murder whey live a bruk law 
Who shoot first a no who draw 
Me tell you Haile Selassie I you say you nah 

A sake a you mama deh walk and beg 
Hear say you wanted live or dead 
Can't fi get the baby pain although you running the place red 
People witness when you tek man out a dem bed 
Blow blow and lick shot in a head 
Never know informer would a mek news spread 
Caan escape now you surrounded by Feds 
Hang up badness mama did tell you say 
Rastafari you fi praaise instead 

A who shoot first a no who draw 
Caan escape from the long arms of the law 
Who shoot first a no who draw 
Say you living fi yu life too raw 
Who shoot first a no who draw 
You a murder whey live a bruk law 
Who shoot first a no who draw 
Me tell you Haile Selassie I you say you nah 

A who shoot first a no who draw

Who shoot first a no who draw 
Say you living fi yu life too raw 
Who shoot first a no who draw
