Lyrics

No, don't you crack
Come let's dance to the reggae rock (hey)
No, don't you crack
Come let's dance to the reggae rock (please)
No, don't you crack
Come let's dance to the reggae rock (hey)
No, don't you crack
Come let's dance to the reggae rock (please)
I can't seem to settle down
In this uh-kinky part of town
Where everybody seems to use cocaine
You take the time to find it out
What this cocaine is all about
Have everybody freebasin' away
If you make consciousness the key
That′s the way we will be free
Instead of freebasin' your time away
Jah Jah music sound so sweet
It makes you move your dancin' feet
We got to find a better way to play (hey)
No, don't you crack
Come let's dance to the reggae rock (hey)
No, don't you crack
Come let's dance to the reggae rock (please)
No, don't you crack
Come let's dance to the reggae rock (hey)
No, don't you crack
Come let's dance to the reggae rock (please)
What happened to the Good Lord′s bread
Where we used to rest our head
What happened to the good sinsi
It used to make you feel irie
And now you've gone and used cocane
Yes it make you go insane
It make you lose your friends and family
If you make consciousness the key
That′s the way we will be free
Instead of free basin your time away
Jah Jah music sound so sweet
It makes you move your dancin' feet
We got to find a better way to play (hey)
No, don't you crack
Come let's dance to the reggae rock (hey)
No, don't you crack
Come let's dance to the reggae rock (please)
No, don't you crack
Come let's dance to the reggae rock (hey)
No, don't you crack
Come let's dance to the reggae rock
No, don't you crack
Come let's dance to the reggae rock (ay-yo)
No, don't you crack
Come let's dance to the reggae rock (please)
No, don't you crack
