Shaggy - Forgive Them Father lyrics

Them say money is the root of all evil But a no money Some people a k** people little or nothing Some say them a gangster but a studio gangster Well now a gun shot lick and a marrow it fly Little youth with the 45 and him say do or die Now him muma she cry water run from her eye And she remember when him was little bit and oh so shy [Chorus:] Forgive them father cause they know not what they have done To save them from destruction gave his only begotten son Like them no understand say revelation a come so watch the heathen them a run [Verse 1:] Too much fuss and fight (BOO) And that is not right You no can't blow breath in a man but still that you want take life Innocent youth die bury a next guy And him muma wool her belly and ask God why? Well no ask me no question I tell you no lie It's about time the world start to realize This a revelation and it's a serious time Put your a hand inna the air and pray to the most high [Chorus] [Verse 2:] Youth man a beg and you fi put down your gun Me no want fi see another youth tumble down This is reality no play dumb dumb Some a them a thing 'bout dollars having a large sum Money is the root of all evil if so me no want none Wicked man them a heathen fi them fire burn Whole a them shall perish inna the wicked kingdom This is Shaggy one of Jah Jah son [Chorus] [Verse 3:] Yow! yow! yow! stop talking yow Mislead the youth to shoot them one another down Muma what this you're talking pure foolishness Can't sit down eat me Sunday ackee and salt fish Can't use me tounge and lick out me pyrex dish As me sit down and a wish me mouth start get peckish Have fi eat me dry bread and drink the water well quick [Chorus] Now a gun shot lick and a marrow it fly Little youth with the 45 and him say do or die Now him muma she cry water run from her eye And she remember when him was little bit and oh so shy Watch it [Repeat verse 2] [Chorus] [Repeat verse 1 till fade]
