Lyrics

Why boasteth thyself
Oh, evil men
Playing smart
And not being clever?
I said, you're working iniquity
To achieve vanity (if a-so a-so)
But the goodness of Jah, Jah
I-dureth for-I-ver
If you are a big tree
Let me tell you I'm a small axe
Ready to cut you down
Ready to cut you down
These are the words
Of my master
No weak heart
Shall prosper
And whosoever diggeth a pit
Shall fall in it (fall in it)
And whosoever diggeth a pit
Shall bury in it (bury in it)
If you are a big tree, let me tell you that
I'm a small axe
Ready to cut you down
Ready to cut you down
Ready to cut you down
Ready to cut you down
These are the words
Of my master
No weak heart
Shall prosper
And whosoever diggeth a pit
Shall fall in it, uh, bury in it
And whosoever diggeth a pit
Shall bury in it, uh (bury in it)
If you are the big, big tree
I'm the small axe
Ready to cut you down (well sharp)
Ready to cut you down
If you are the big, big tree, let me tell you that
I'm the small axe
Ready to cut you down
Ready to cut you down
