Roots Man Time

Known from the Gold Coast to the rocky shores of Maine
Iraw is my name and love is my game
I cross the desert sands without a flaw
Heels in and toes out because I'm bad
'Cause I'm the devil's brother-in-law

Baby girl, have you seen Frankie
From the people, I'm the carpet and I'm the tree farm

Girls of the earth, you're mine too
Whether we come to a king mob
Better clean it and clean
And the roots man time now
Baby girl, now the roots man time now
Bow!
See the roots man time now

See the rockers, rockers down
You gonna grease it like them tires
And the slow, slow, beast

Gee wee
Wanna be free like a bird up in a tree
And then travel down to New York City

I would say, say baby
The rockers, rockers down there
Roots rockers all over the world
90 Dread
'Cause the rockers, rockers down there

And I
The rockers, rockers down there
Traveling through Brooklyn and Bronx
And Tiger women tank
Traveling through St. James and Manhattan and Queens
And the rockers, rockers down there

Traveling to Canada

Oh, little life folks
We really make strokes
And cooler than bloke
And drink up your Coke
'Cause see the rockers, rockers down there
And I

Some a-take a liquor sip
Some a-travel by the lips
'Cause see the rockers, rockers down there

Doing in the penthouse
Rockers, rockers down there
Cooler than Mickey Mouse
And rockers, rockers down there
Adios
And rockers, rockers down there
Girls fancy and spouse
And rockers, rockers down there
And I

May see just peace

And love and vanity
All over the world today
Roots time
See them a-feel fine
See we gonna rockers, rockers down there
See gonna rock it, rock it down there

We up on the hill, I got the people
You feel and chill
And see the rockers, rockers down there
Sister Nelly
And rockers, rockers down there

Move up, up Nelly
And rockers, rockers down there

Shout out for T. Shane and Sam
The other way
And rockers, rockers down there

Wow!
More love, love
Stand up in any club
And rockers, rockers down there

Down in Victoria Park
They walk in the dark
'Cause see the rockers, rockers down there

Prince Florence got a couple rocks a year
Black folks know they gotta love a bread and beer
And where is my shield?
I say it's up in the hill
I feel the rockers, rockers down there
Love bird, you know
Loom London town and move like a bloodhound
So keep your feet and gonna rock it
Off the corner to the E1 sound
Snack rockers down there, you know
