A so me know you a go play it on the disco
A so me say we a go hear it on the stereo
As I pass the dreadlocks' camp I heard them say
Be da lee bee da lee bum biddle lee bum
Give me little music make me wind up me waist
Give me little music make me wind up me waist, (I say)
I say east, say west, say north and south (on the left hand side)
I say east, say west, say north and south (on the left hand side)
It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance
It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance
It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance
It a gonna burn, give me music make me jump and prance
It a gonna burn, give me music make me jump and prance
It a gonna burn, give me music make me jump and prance
It was a cool and lovely breezy afternoon
Me say listen to the drummer, me say listen to the bass
Music happen to be the food of love
On the left hand side
On the left hand side
On the left hand side (I said)
Pass the dutchie on the left hand side
Pass the dutchie on the left hand side
Pass the dutchie on the left hand side
Pass the dutchie on the left hand side (I say)
Pass the dutchie on the left hand side (I say)
Rules the nation
So I left my gate and went out for a walk
So I stopped to find out what was going on.
Sounds to really make you rub and scrub
There was a ring of dreads and a session was there in swing
This is gonna make me be able to jump and shout, I say (on the left hand side)
This is gonna make us jump and shout (on the left hand side)
We meet on the left hand side
With version
You could feel it 'cause it was the month of June
You could feel the chill as I seen and heard them say
You play it on the radio, a so me say, we a go hear it on the stereo
'Cause me say listen to the drummer, me say listen to the bass
'Cause the spirit of Jah, you know he leads you on
(How does it feel when you've got no food?)
(How does it feel when you've got no food?)
(How does it feel when you've got no food?)
