Lyrics 400 Years (Jamaican Version) - The Wailers , Bob Marley

400 years (400 years, 400 years ooh-ooh)
And it's the same, the same (ooh-ooh) philosophy
I've said it's 400 years (400 years, 400 years ooh-ooh)
Look, how long (ooh-ooh)
And the people they (ooh-ooh) still can't see
Why do they fight against (fight against) the poor youth of today?
And without these youths, they would be gone
All gone astray

Come on, let's make a move (make a move, make a move ooh-ooh)
I can (ooh-ooh) see time (ooh-ooh) time has come
And if-a fools don't see (fools don't see, fools don't see) (ooh-ooh)
I can't save the youth
The youth (ooh-ooh) is gonna be strong

So, won't you come with me
I'll take you to a land of liberty
Where we can live
Live a good, good life and be free

Look how long, 400 years, (400 years, 400 years)
Way too long (ooh-ooh)
And the people (ooh-ooh) my people can't see
Said, it's 400 long years (400 years, 400 years ooh-ooh)
Give me patience (ooh-ooh) same philosophy
It's been 400 years, (400 years, 400 years)
Wait so long (ooh-ooh)

Look, how long
400 long, long years (ooh-ooh)
People hiding from reality
400 years
