Raggy Road Lyrics[Intro]
Jah! Rastafari...
And I saw an I-ngel ascended from the East
Having the seal of the living King, Emperor Haile Selassie I the first
The Most High
And He cried out with a loud voice, sayin'
Oh oh...

[Chorus]
It's a raggy road
The road is so rough
A raggy road
The road is so tough
A raggy road
Road is so rough
Raggy road
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Well, I've been troddin' this road for the longest while
And mi career nuff of dem want fi soil
Hey, hey
Troddin' this road for the longest while
And never yet try pop off all another man's coil
Troddin' this road for the longest while
A long time, David house, and dem no stop till the soil
Troddin' this road for the longest while
And give away more than 1/10th of the spoil
Troddin' this road for the longest while
And still my lamp never run out of oil

[Verse 1]
This yah one yah a fi real
Go tell dem anuh bargain, tell dem anuh deal
Nuff of dem no want put dem shoulder to the wheel
So dem go rape, dem go rob, and dem go kill, and steal
All a try eat all a another man's meal
Unuh deaf, unuh dumb, unuh blind fi go feel
One man was worthy to open the seal
Emperor Selassie I, I know He's real
Babylon get trampled under mi heel!

[Chorus]
Raggy road
Road is so rough
Raggy road
The road is so tough
The raggy road
Road is so rough
Raggy road
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Well, I've been troddin' this road for the longest while
Still mi career nuff of dem want fi soil
Hey, hey
Troddin' this road for the longest while
And never yet try pop off all another man's coil
Troddin' this road for the longest while
A long time, the Prophet, and him no stop till the soil
Troddin' this road for the longest while
And give away more than 1/10th of the spoil
Troddin' this road for the longest while
And still my lamp never run out of oil

[Verse 2]
Well, nuff of dem go get throw overboard
Like Henry Morgan with the pirate code
Nuff of dem a trod upon corruption road
Nuff of dem a trod with Satan heavy load
True dem promote death, dem dead fi wreath and rose
The Binghi man no model, Binghi man no pose
Binghi man nah wear up dem Babylon clothes
Inna mi turban and mi ancient robe!
Wha' dem a conceal, we come fi expose
The righteous works nuff try oppose
I see judgement a take dem evil episode
Judgement take dem and then dem explode
[Chorus]
Well, it is a raggy road
The road is so rough
Raggy road
The road is so tough
A raggy road
Road is so rough
Raggy road
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Well, it is a raggy road
Immanuel road so rough
Raggy road
Selassie I road so rough
Raggy road
Marcus road so rough
Raggy road
Yeah, yeah

[Verse 3]
Well, Babylon dem have fi run
Now dem see the Haman a come, dem ago run
I'm like the lightning and the thunder come fi conquer dem gun
I'm like the rain, I'm like the breeze, I'm like the river that run
I'm like the star, I'm like the moon, I'm just like the sun
And dem give the ghetto youth dem gun fi shoot dem brother down
Babylon, your judgement haffi come!

[Outro]
Raggy road
Road is so rough
Raggy road
The road is so tough
A raggy road
Road is so rough
Raggy road
