No Woman, No Cry

A song, so defined, as she, lays her 
heart, pure n' fair, Is where he'll
hold her tears, back in,
soaked n' drenched, dredd-locks, 
across her eyes, No woman, 
No Cry, should ever fear, 
though I have justified, that its 
fascination, is a humbled 
one,among a soul, who's true 
n' rare,for he'll dry those 
tears,once more,to show, his 
blissful lyrics,he says plz love, 
don't cry,against the 
rain, As he now bares his 
love world wide, where it hides no
more, mamma plz don't cry,
no woman; no cry, 
No Fear, I love You, 
in A S.O.S........


Inspired by a great legend: 
singer/song writer
Bob Marley
You are truly missed
May god watch over us,
And many wishes........

Dirty Reggae

Rudeboy working in the street, 
no money for his food or shoes for his feet
East Coast Reggae makin his crime bitter sweet
Too much worry for dem to retreat

Ska music reggae share the same old beat
Two-Tone suit get dirty in the street
but Rudeboy keeps him head up and keeps skankin with him feet

Bastar' Bastar'! Beat down the natty dredd Officer
Pickitup, pickitup with him CooKoo Maka Stick!
