Ride Natty Ride lyrics
Dready got a job to do
And he’s got to fulfill that mission
To see his hurt is their
Greatest ambition
But we’ll survive
In this world of competition
’Cause no matter what they do
Natty keep on comin thru
And no matter what they say
Natty de deh every day
Natty Dread rides again
Thru the mystics of tomorrow
Natty Dread rides again
Having no fear, having no sorrow
All and all you see a Gwan
Is to fight against Rastaman
So they build their world
In great confusion
To force on us the devil’s illusion
But the stone that the builder refuse
Shall be the head cornerstone
And no matter what games they play
There is something they could never take away
Something they could never take away
It’s the fire, it’s the fire, fire
Burning down everything
Feel that fire, fire, the fire, the fire
Only the birds have wings
No time to be deceived
You should know and not believe
Jah says this judgement
Could never be with water
So no water could put out this fire
This this fire, this this fire
This this fire ride Natty ride
Go deh dready, go deh dready, go de
Now the fire is burning
Out of control panic in the city
Wicked weeping for their gold
Everywhere the fire is burning
Destroying and melting their gold
Destroying and waisting their souls
Ride Natty ride
Go deh dready, go deh dready
Go deh dready go de
Now the people gather on the beach
And the leader try to make a speach
But Dread again tell them it’s too late
Fire is burning
Man pull your own weight
Fire is burning
Man pull your own weight
Natty dread rides again
Go deh Dready, go deh Dready, go deh
Oh ride Natty ride
Natty dread rides again
Go deh Dready, go deh, go deh Dready, go deh
Riding thru the storm
And we riding thru the calm
Go deh, go deh
We riding thru the thick
We riding thru the thin
Ride Natty, ride Natty
