Chalice

Now as we gather here today

Bredrin and sistren, I want you to know that ganja is
The healing of the nation from King Solomon to Israel

In a di catholic church di ganja pipe a bun
Smoke from di challis lick di pope to di ground
Di pope lick di challis, give di evangelist
Evangelist lick it, give di missionary
Di missionary lick it an' him give it to di nun
But before it reach di altar, boy, di challis, it a bun
It have fi done (Woah-oh)
Challis have fi done (Lord have mercy)
But mi say

In front a camp weh di ganja haffi dump
Smoke from di ganja make di brigadier belly cramp
Him run in a him office an' go light up him lamp
Him jump in a one of dem, di poor soldier camp
Him run mi over hills an' man, him run mi through swamp
It haffi dump (Woah-oh)
Di challis haffi dump (Lord have mercy)

Cah mi say, in a mi yard just a eat mi dinner
Say, there come some soldier in a Land Rover
Di way mi mother fight, she go fi hundred dollar
Dem say "No, mother, just give we tram ganja"
Although you see say we are soldier
Don't give we ganja an' dem charge we fi murder
Then dem wrap up a draw

Dis a fi him bredren weh a drive di soldier tanker
An' then him wrap another draw
Dis a fi him bredren weh a fly di helicopter
An' then him wrap another draw
Dis a fi di head one weh dem call di commander
Then him wrap another draw

For happy birthday to him mother an' father
Challis have fi bun
Cah mi say challis have fi bun (Lord have mercy)

Say, give mi challis, give mi mi challis
Give mi mi bubblin'-diddlin'-telephone challis
If I could only get my challis
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday
Thursday, Friday, Saturday, any day now
Give mi mi challis an' mi home (Lord have mercy)
Say, any day, give mi challis an' go home (Lord have mercy)
