Lyrics

Look how the heathen
Them a goin' 'pon street today
(repeat)
You told the military to take a peep
And now on every corner I can see
Black mariah tankers and jeeps
Look how the heathen
Them a goin' 'pon the street today
As I stand and look in the far east, oh
I can see there ain't no sign of peace no
So I want you to know that
The stake is over
No more feast no
One thing leads to another
It does not last forever
Our revolutionary spirit come a long way
So don't be no stumbling block in our way
Look how the heathen
Then a gon' 'pon street today, oh
(repeat)
Oh yes yes yes
Oh yes
