Lyrics

Whoa-a natty congo A dreadlock congo I Whoa-a natty congo A black man redemption, whoa-yo, yay, yay A blackman redemption, whoa-yo, whoa, whoa No need, no need to get jumpy No need, and a no need to get bumpy And a no need, and a no need to get bumpy No ne-ne-ne-ne-ne-ne-ne-need to get jumpy Youth and youth agree to cool running Can you dig it? Cool running, yeah, one more time, I beg ya Cool running, can you stop it? Cool running, spread out, spread out, spread out Spread out Tell you about the black man redemption Can you dig it? (Oh yeah) A black man redemption, can you stop it? (Oh, no) Oh no, oh no Coming from the root of King David Through the line of Solomon His Imperial Majesty is the power of authority Spread out, spread out Spread out, spread out, spread out Spread out No need, no need, no need to get jumpy And a no need, and a no need to walk away Let me tell 'bout ya Cool running, can you dig it? Cool running It's one more time we want it Cool running, cool running Spread out, spread out, spread out, spread out Spread out, spread out, spread out, yeah, spread out, spread out It's just a black man redemption Can you dig it? (Oh yeah) Black man redemption, can you stop it?
