Clinton Fearon & The Boogie Brown Band – Nah Forget Mi Roots lyrics

Mi nah forget mi roots
Mi nah forget mi roots
I won't forget mi roots
I'll never forget mi roots
Oh no bongo
No congo

A who sold mama
A who sold papa
Two sides to the coin
The seller and the buyer
Let's talk about it
Let's talk about it

Many years of history
Much things have gone wrong
It's no mystery why we just
Can't get along

Let's talk about it
Let's talk about it

Judas sold Christ for thirty
Pieces of silver... Judas
Told his brothers and sisters
That the ride would be fun on the
Water...Judas
A problem can't be solved
If we push it under the rug
We've got to talk about it talk about it
Can't treat a problem like a lifeless bug
We need to talk about it
Let's talk about it

Never see smoke without fire
Can't swim if there's no water
What goes up must come down
What goes around comes around
Follow the sound

( chorus )

Too much wars and rumours of war
In our little world our little world
Who is to blame for the many gang bangs
In our little towns our little towns

A problem can't be solved
If we push it under the rug
We've got to talk about it talk about it
Can't treat a problem like a lifeless bug
We need to talk about it
Let's talk about it

Hey you man in the mirror
Don't be affraid of tomorrow
Just remember that blood follows vein
And in every vein blood means the same

( chorus )
