Lyrics

I'm not an obeah man
I am a Rasta man
I am the righteous one
I'm not an obeah man
I am a Rasta man
I am the righteous one
Do not study iniquity
Jah-Jah know yah
Do not act wickedly, I said
Jah-Jah know yah
(Rock weh)
Wit yuh obeah book
No, no, no I-man nuh dwell deh
(Rock weh)
Wit yuh obeah book
No, no, no Rasta nuh dwell deh
Going around making disturbances
(Disturbances)
Persecuting Jah-Jah children yah
Talking this, talking that
Cow dead and horse fat
But I seh
(Rock weh)
Wit yuh obeah book
No, no, no I-man nuh dwell deh
(Rock weh)
Wit yuh obeah book
No, no, no Rasta nuh dwell deh
A true
Going around making disturbances
(Disturbances)
Persecuting Jah-Jah children yah
Talking this, talking that
But Jah gwine turn ova yuh obeah pot
I seh
(Rock weh)
Wit yuh obeah book
No, no, no I-man nuh dwell deh
(Rock weh)
Wit yuh obeah book
No, no, no Rasta nuh dwell deh
(Rock weh)
(Rock weh)
Uh-uh
(Rock weh)
