favorite reggae lyrics
    #12893346 -

My favorite reggae lyrics of all time are from the song 'Legalize it' by Peter Tosh

Legalize it - don't criticize it
Legalize it and i will advertise it

Some call it tampee
Some call it the weed
Some call it Marijuana
Some of them call it Ganja

Legalize it - don't criticize it
Legalize it and i will advertise it

Singer smoke it
And players of instruments too
Legalize it, yeah, yeah
That's the best thing you can do
Doctors smoke it
Nurses smoke it
Judges smoke it
Even the lawyers too

Legalize it - don't criticize it
Legalize it and i will advertise it

It's good for the flu
It's good for asthma
Good for tuberculosis
Even umara composis

Legalize it - don't criticize it
Legalize it and i will advertise it

Bird eat it
And they leave it
Fowls eat it
Goats love to play with it

What are some of your favorite lyrics?

I have literally never been impressed by reggae lyrics.
Not that I have anything against reggae, but it ain't exactly intellectually stimulating.

But you wanted us to post lyrics...
Here's some Shins:

Just put yourself in my new shoes,
and see that I do what I do
because the old guard still offends!
They got nothing left on which we depend.
So enlist every ounce
of your bright blood,
and off with their heads!

life has come a long way since yesterday I say
and its not the same old thing over again I say
just do what you feel and don't you fool yourself I say
cause I can't make you happy unless I am I say I say I

got to be true to myself got to be true to myself
got to be true to myself got to be true to myself
got to be true to myself got to be true to myself
got to be true to myself got to be true to myself

day in day out I've asked many questions I say
only to find the truth it never changes I say
if you don't deal with it it keeps killing you a little by little I say
call me selfish if you will my life I alone can live I say I say I

got to be true to myself got to be true to myself

I don't care if it hurts I'm tired of lies and all these games
I've reached a point in life no longer can I be this way
don't come crying to me I too have shed my share of tears
I'm moving on yes I'm grooving on well I'm finally free I've

got to be true to myself got to be true to myself
got to be true to myself got to be true to myself

"I am free, no matter what rules surround me. If I find them tolerable, I tolerate them; if I find them too obnoxious, I break them.
I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do." -Robert A. Heinlein

My brain and my heart are my temples; my philosophy is kindness."-Dalai Lama

lol @ all the marley.

Woy! Desperation has return
Sodom and Gomorrah no deh yah so!
Woy desperation has return over yonder
Sodom and Gomorrah no deh yah so!

Wild one, you are like the Prodigal Son yeah
And if you're the Prodigal Son, my friend
Then you're the one, you
Left taking your only possession
Your culture
To enter a world known for hacklings
In abundance, yeah
The hustlers of life
Have hooked and drained you from the man
Form the man that you used to be, turn your back on us
Return Rastaman where you came from
The land of your forefathers

Reaching the gates with your two long hands
Searching out for clean water
Wild one...

Prodigal come forth and rejoice with your voice
To the heavens
Chant some song, chant some song
Prodigal come forth and repent
Rastafari sins forgiven

Woy! Desperation has return...

One has returned without one's soul
And has squandered all his possessions
Let us cleanse your body now
From your service to the swine, because
You've been dead and now to anoint your head
With wisdom, knowledge and overstanding
A lesson has been taught unto you my friend
Time for a feast and rejoicing

Wild one...
Chorus
Woy! Desperation has return
Prodigal has returned to his culture
Prodigal has returned give him water
Prodigal has returned, has returned...

everybody's worried about time
but i just keep that shit off my mind
people living on twenty four hour clocks
but we're on a ride that never stops

hey mister bee the world change but you remain the same
and i wonder how you'll survive with the environment going down the drain
hey miss dragonfly i see you look at me with your beautiful eyes
you must be wondering what type of creature am i

a dog looked at me and said ziggy why can't we trust man
puss and me get together why can't you all just understand
an old tree stood there silently listening to every word we said
as a tear fell he cried what type of creature is man

i said hey mister tree the world change but you remain the same
and i wonder how you survive with the environment going down the drain
hey miss butterfly I see you look at me with your beautiful eyes
you must be wondering what kind of creature am i
you must be wondering what kind of creature am i

everybody's worried about time
but i just keep that shit off my mind
people living on twenty four hour clocks

hey mister bee the world change but you remain the same
and i hope you'll survive with the environment going down the drain
hey miss butterfly i see you look at me with your beautiful eyes

Sittin on da fence and I wonder to myself why the government don't legalize da ganja
Jus di other day I was smokin on da way I see sum po po polus
This is what I told the officer'¦...

This is the weed that we call purple skunk
And I got it bulk, And I got it under my trunk (under my truuunnkk)
But officer, Everyone knows that we got the weed flow
And we aint gonna stop Until weed is sellin in stooores (sellin in stooores)

Just sing my song
The whole world need to legalize ganja (ganja ga ga ganja)
And the whole world is free to smoke on da corner (corner cor cor corner)
We nah go get nooo arrestment from da police officer ( officer offi offi cer)
The whole world need to legalize ganja (ganja ganja)
Dream over there can smoke on da plane
Dream over there can smoke on da train
Dream over there can smoke on da lane
Or wit our frens up on da lane
Police and soldier couldn't complain
Weed alone is in my brain
My weed songs are our train to fame
From now on we lost them change
Walk threw the air port nice and calm
Wit my chalice in my arm
Crushin a scliff in my palm
Police dog smell wit no alarm(dog barkin)
Dog see me
Dog smell
Dog keep kool
Dog get used to da new dog rule
Dog gone to da dog trainin school
And dog get use to the new dog rules and no weedman diffrent from you
Mr. Mr. Immigration
Weed is the healin of my nation
Been on da earth since creation
So please don't mind the spliff in my'¦.

Now the whole world need to legalize ganja (ganja ga ga ganja)
And the whole world is free to smoke on da corner (corner cor )
We nah get nooo areest me from the police offica

The whole world need to legalize ganja (ganja ga ga ganja)
It's very clear in front my eyes
Ganja weed should legalize
Government should should get wise
And give Chiney a big surprise
Burger King n Popeyes servin' weed jus like fries
Large, medium any size
So drive around or come inside(beep beep)

Now the whole world need to legalize ganja (ganja ga ga ganja)
And the whole world is free to smoke on every corner (corner cor cor corner)
We nah go get nooo arrestment from da chief officer ( officer Loe wi officer)
The whole world need to legalize ganja (ganja ga ga ganja)

Dream over there can smoke on da plane
Dream over there can smoke on da train
Dream over there can smoke on da lane
Or wit our frens up on da lane
Police and soldier couldn't complain
Weed alone is in my brain
Myweed songs are our train to fame
From now on we lost them change
Walk threw the air port nice and calm
Wit my chalice in my arm
Crushin a scliff in my palm

Man to man is so unjust, children:
Ya don't know who to trust.
Your worst enemy could be your best friend,
And your best friend your worse enemy.

Some will eat and drink with you,
Then behind them su-su 'pon you.
Only your friend know your secrets,
So only he could reveal it.
And who the cap fit, let them wear it!
Who the cap fit, let them wear it!
Said I throw me corn, me no call no fowl;
I saying, "Cook-cook-cook, cluk-cluk-cluk."

Some will hate you, pretend they love you now,
Then behind they try to eliminate you.
But who Jah bless, no one curse;
Thank God, we're past the worse.
Hypocrites and parasites
Will come up and take a bite.
And if your night should turn to day,
A lot of people would run away.
And who the stock fit let them wear it!
Who the (cap fit) let them (wear it)!

And then a-gonna throw me corn,
And then a-gonna call no fowl,
And then a-gonna "Cook-cook-cook, cluk-cluk-cluk."

Throw me corn (cook-cook-cook);
