Strolling Paroles

Over the mountains, across the seas
And when they need it, then they send for me
The Rastaman strolling into town
The fyah man strolling into town
Over the mountains, across the seas
You feel it mystically in the breeze
When the Rastaman strolling into town
The fyah man strolling into town

Dem a hear the one a praise yo
Me no trust weh dem a talk
Words a fly over me head like shootin stars
Me see dem inna garrison, stage shows and bars

Them a hail you an' a praise you
Me no trust when dem a talk
Words a fly over me head like shooting stars
Me see dem inna garrison, stage shows and bars
Mouth a talk peace, but dem heart a beat war
Over the mountains, across the seas
And when they need it, then they send for me
The Rastaman strolling into town
The fyah man strolling into town
Over the mountains, across the seas
You feel it mystically in the breeze
When the Rastaman strolling into town
The fyah man strolling into town

Well, the thing yah balance from the woofer to the twetter
Can't get it better flawess like Lupita
Oh no, they wanna be your friend to get a feature
Disciples them a coulda Judas, coulda Peter
One will tek yuh life and one will never leave yah
Pray for the wisdom so you know before it reach yah
When to be the student, when to be the teacher
When to talk you mind and when to never ever speak
And 'pon that note you know I probably shouldn't say
But them man deh the business looking sloppy from weh day
Topic a the day, animosity fi popularity
Haffi stop it microscopic a the pray
Take a look a panoramic me a say
While them sit down and a watch them Panasonic every day
So when Alborosie call me and say 'Yeh'
Link up and drop it internationally

Over the mountains, across the seas
And when they need it, then they send for me
The Rastaman strolling into town
The fyah man strolling into town
Over the mountains, across the seas
You feel it mystically in the breeze
When the Rastaman strolling into town
The fyah man strolling into town

If you can't neither fly, you should run like a train
Maybe Usain should ah say it
Take me inna capsules just like a pain killer
Listen to my music while you puffing sensimilla
Apart from the business, music ever me heart
Music from me heart so Selassie take the charts
All Zion youth him a sing about that
That shows you seh we all inna one class

Over the mountains, across the seas
And when they need it, then they send for me
The Rastaman strolling into town
The fyah man strolling into town
Over the mountains, across the seas
You feel it mystically in the breeze
When the Rastaman strolling into town
The fyah man strolling into town, hey
