Sizzla


Ah, Just like in the older days 
chop off the pagan head and let it roll away 
Listen to what I got to say 
Praise the King every day 

[CHORUS:]
Come mek we go mash dem down nah lose

Come we go mash dem down cyah lose 
Ah, Deal wit dem ras

All dem ah wrinch and ah frown 
stumble blocks will have to move 
Come we go mash dem down nah lose 
Kalonji come fi mash dem down nah lose 

Listen Up

Big up the ghetto girl ah Kingston and Balaclava
