Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers - Water And Oil lyrics

Dem try fi hold hold wha dem can't conquer Rastaman no mix up with no vagavanga [repeat] They want to condemn the innocent For crimes which we did not committ They want to get good people mix up In their bag of tricks But water and oil can't mix Water and oil don't mix [repeat] Say dem try fi hold hold wha dem can't conquer Rastaman no mix up with no vagavanga [repeat] Hear this! naah go like the son if you no like the father True we manifest under the same order co*k your ears and listen me want you hear ya part ya But first come in papa Ziggy as the eldest brother Yes I hear the lies they've told Dem says Rasta did this and this What is the politican role Is it to create conflicts But water and oil can't mix Water and oil don't mix [repeat] Jah who I praise break your silence Now that the wicked is accusing Attacking for no reason All we did was pray for them Now the way things happen fast Some things me naah go member But the day did cool cool and collective lya Nest thing me know some unwanted visitors Some devil worshipping Rasta hating cold-blooded murdera Never get get wha dem expect dem expect lamb fi slaughter Hear this! This is Ragamuffin and him hitting harder We get up from weh we sit down to a strategic corner Me and the bwoy dem eye mek four me mek a nervous swallow Prip around from left to right me look pon all me brother Hold me head to the sky and make a final prayer Zoom! zoom! And everything take cover Look how fast lightning rod back out in all a dem face Quick! Me back out me no member wha it name Them enver know the youth them would not lose them faith Through the grace of the Father everything set straight Water and oil can't mix
