One More Stripe

All nice and decent people over the bed
Now me just get the middle man
All original rude boy
When it come to shoot, shoot, you don't talk
Original Raggamuffin DJ
Tell all slackness DJ pack up and pack

Hear me one more stripe, me say me turn inna major
Let me tell you this, hear me two more stripe
Part time soldier leave the border, Lord of mercy
Hear me three more stripe, Cutty Ranking start give the order
Hear me now, star, hear me four more stripe
Me Raggamuffin and me come fi take over, Lord of mercy

Now to the Don Man syndicate
Say nuff of dem start worry and fret
And now the Godfather come, dem no hear nothing yet
Me is a roughneck soldier, me is not talker yet
And if you climb me fence, you goin' live and fret
But listen Cutty Rank, me no take no check

Hear me one more stripe, me say me turn inna major
Let me tell you this, hear me two more stripe
Part time soldier leave the border, Lord of mercy
Hear me three more stripe, me say me start give the order
Follow me now man, hear me four more stripe
Me Raggamuffin and me come fi take over, Lord of mercy

But listen Cutty Rank, 'cause me a champion
And me say anywhere me go, me a number one
All the slackness DJ run on, galang
Me ago pack up all of dem like a rubbish inna pan
Listen Raggamuffin pon the microphone stand
Now me set up pon the riddim, chat it pon the version

Hear me one more stripe, me say me turn inna major
Let me tell you this, hear me two more stripe
Part time soldier leave the border, Lord of mercy
Hear me three more stripe, Cutty Ranking start give the order
Hear me now, star, hear me three more stripe
Me Raggamuffin and me come fi take over, Lord of mercy

Hear me now, star, you better cool, 'cause you is just a corporal
If you make the wrong move you get court martial
You better bow and salute to the field marshal
If me find you guilty, me nah go partial
When me hold microphone, got the credential
When me come a dancehall, say, me well official
Listen Cutty Rank pon the microphone stand

Hear me one more stripe, me say me turn inna major
Let me tell you this, hear me two more stripe
Part time soldier leave the border, Lord of mercy
Hear me three more stripe, me Raggamuffin and me come fi take over
Let me tell you this, hear me four more stripe
Cutty Ranking start give the order, Lord of mercy

Follow me now man, you could a camp inna east or you camp inna west
If you make no wrong move and a big up your chest
I goin' prove to you that I am the best
Take the stripe off of your shoulder, medal off of your chest
And make you know say Cutty Ranking is the best
Run you out inna the force, make you gwan go take a rest

Hear me one more stripe, me say me turn inna major
Let me tell you this, hear me two more stripe
Part time soldier leave the border, Lord of mercy
Hear me three more stripe, Cutty Ranking start give the order
