Deadlock Holiday Lyrics

    i was walkin' down the street
    Concentratin' on truckin' right
    I heard a dark voice beside of me
    And i looked round in a state of fright
    I saw four faces, one mad
    A brother from the gutter
    They looked me up and down a bit
    And turned to each other

    I say
    I don't like cricket oh no
    I love it
    I don't like cricket no no
    I love it
    Don't you walk through my words
    Got to show some respect
    Don't you walk through my words
    'cause you ain't heard me out yet

    Well he looked down at my silver chain
    He said "i'll give you one dollar"
    I said "you got to be jokin' man,
    It was a present from me mother"
    He said "i like it, i want it,
    I'll take it off your hands
    And you'll be sorry you crossed me
    You'd better understand that you're alone,
    A long way from home!"

    I say
    I don't like reggae no no
    I love it
    I don't like reggae
    I love it
    Don't you cramp me style
    Don't you queer me pitch
    Don't you walk through my words
    'cause you ain't heard me out yet

    I hurried back to the swimming pool
    Sinkin' pina calarda
    I heard a dark voice beside me say
    "would you like something harder"
    She said "i've got it, you want it,
    My harvest is the best
    And if you try it, you'll like it
    And whollow in a dreadlock holiday"

    And i say
    Don't like jamaica oh no
    I love her
    Don't like jamaica oh no
    I love her oh yea
    Don't you walk through her words
    Got to show some respect
    Don't you walk through her words
    'cause you ain't heard her out yet

    I don't like cricket
    I love it dreadlock holiday
    I don't like reggae
    I love it dreadlock holiday
    Don't like jamaica
    I love it dreadlock holiday
