Lyrics

I was walking down the street
Concentrating on trucking right
I heard a dark voice beside of me
And I looked 'round in a state of fright
I saw four faces, one man
A brother from the gutter
They looked me up and down a bit
And turned to each other
I say I don't like cricket, oh no
I love it
I don't like cricket, no, no
I love it
Don't you walk through my words
Got to show some respect
Don't you walk through my words
'Cause you ain't got me out yet
'Cause he looked down at my silver chain
He said, "I'll give you one dollar"
I said, "You got to be joking, man
It was a present from me mother"
He said, "I like it, I want it
I'll take it off your hands and you'll be sorry
You crossed me, you better understand that you're alone
A long way from home"
I say I don't like reggae, oh no, no
I love it, yeah
I don't like reggae, oh, oh
I love it, yeah
Don't you cramp my style
Don't you wee on the pitch
Don't you walk through my words
'Cause you ain't got me out yet
I hurried back to the swimming pool
Soon had been at the larder
I heard a dark voice beside me say
"Would you like something harder?"
She said, "I got it, you want it
My heart is tears to bed and if you try it
You'll like it, and wallow in your dreadlock island" (Dreadlock
Holiday, dreadlock holiday, dreadlock holiday, dreadlock holiday)
I say don't like Jamaica, oh, oh no
I love her, hey
Don't like Jamaica, oh, oh no
I love her, oh yeah
Don't you walk through my words
Got to show some respect
Don't you walk through my words
'Cause you ain't got me out yet
I don't like cricket, oh no
I love it (Dreadlock holiday)
I don't like cricket, no, no
I love it (Dreadlock holiday)
Don't like Jamaica, oh no
I love it (Dreadlock holiday)
