When Jah-Jah come, Babylon have to run.
When Jah-Jah come, you have to dash where you're
going;
When Jah-Jah come, you have to put down your bomb.
The wicked man, I know, will really never...
get away from the fire.
It is only good things last forever;
And there's my father's salvation.
What happened to the younger generation?
Led away by the boy called Satan. |
