Songtexte Small Axe - Bob Marley

Why boasteth thyself
Oh, evil men
Playing smart
And not being clever?

I said, you're working iniquity
To achieve vanity (if a,so a,so)
But the goodness of jah, jah
I dureth forever

So, If you are the big tree
We are the small axe
Ready to cut you down (real sharp)
To cut you down

These are the words
Of my master, keep on tellin' me
No week heart
Shall prosper

And whosoever diggeth a pit
Shall fall in it, fall in it
And whosoever diggeth the pit
Shall fall in it (fall in it)

If you are the big tree (let me tell you that)
We are the small axe
Sharpened ready
Ready to cut you down (real sharp)
To cut you down

To cut you down
Uh, to cut you down

These are the words
Of my master, tellin' me that
No week heart
Shall prosper

And whosoever diggeth a pit
Shall fall in it, fall in it (bury in it)
And whosoever diggeth the pit
Shall bury in it (bury in it)

If you are the big, big tree
We are the small axe
Ready to cut you down (real sharp)
To cut you down

If you are the big, big tree (let me tell you that)
We are the small axe
Ready to cut you down
