Stand Up Straight (Live)

Stand up in the powers of the Most High
Jah Jah, Jah Jah

Stand up straight
Help I charge down Babylon's gate
Ready when you're ready to come, hey
Stand up straight now, Ethiopians
Help I charge down Babylon's gate (Heh heh)

True the gang say fe bend down low
They thought that so we go

So a lot of them gone touch them toe
Ah I never knew that it was a trick (What a trick)
Babylon was plotting to whip (What a whip)
Babylon start lash them with big stick
Them jump up quick
But through the powers of the Most High Jah
I and I will get over
Charge down all blood-sucking vampire
Ah I, I, come

Stand up straight, Ethiopians
Help I charge down Babylon's gate
Ready when you're ready to come, hey
Stand up straight now, Ethiopians
Help I charge down Babylon's gate (Break it down)

All the people talk, Babylon won't cooperate (Them a liar)
All them do is just lead the children astray (Them a thief)
Them instigating war and fighting
And criticising without realising
The whole wide world is in a mess, what a stress
The whole wide world is in a mess
A re ga da ga dang, a re ga da ga da dang

All the ladies in the house
I go do something for you right now
You see me?

I'll play your favourite song (Darling)
You can rock me all night long (Darling)
For I've got love (Darling)
Love, sweet love (Darling)
Tell me if you want some more, mm
Tell me if you want some more, mm
Tonight I decide it wouldn't be long
Gonna give you a very, very short and spicy one
How you feel 'bout that, London?
How you feel 'bout that, London?
