Lyrics 54-46 Was My Number - The Maytals
Stick

Can

Listen

Do
you
believe
I
would
take
such
a
thing
with
me
And
give
it
to
a
police
man?
I
wouldn't
do
that,
oh
no
(ooh,
ooh)
I
wouldn't
do
that
(ooh,
ooh)
And
if
I
do
that,
I
would
say
"Sir,
Come
on
and
put
the
charge
on
me"
I
wouldn't
do
that
(ooh,
ooh)
I
wouldn't
do
that
(ooh,
ooh)
I'm
not
a
fool
to
hurt
myself
So
I
was
innocent
of
what
they
done
to
me
They
were
wrong
(ooh,
ooh),
oh
yeah
They
were
wrong
(ooh,
ooh)
You
give
it
to
me
one
time
(huh)
You
give
it
to
me
two
times
(huh-huh)
You
give
it
to
me
three
times
(huh-huh-huh)
You
give
it
to
me
four
times
(huh-huh-huh-huh)

Listen

Oh,
work
could
not
control
me
now
Oh,
no
bars
could
not
hold
me
now
They
hold
I
down
and
they
lock-a
you
way
They
try
to
keep
I
for
a
year
and
a
day
But
through
the
powers
of
the
Most
High
God
Got
to
turn
me
lose,
I
say
54-46

Right
