nail pon cross

Singer:damian marley

yeah

world must understand

yo

a man is just a man

don't you judge him for his ways and flaws

no

speak of love tomorrow

you'll be doing good

my brother

you're working for the greatest cause

he without sin may he throw the first stone

and not even a pebble can cast

no

pharisees and scribes crucified the son of god

be careful who you nail 'pon cross

be careful who you nail 'pon cra-wa-wa-woss

be careful who unnu nail 'pon cross

be careful who you nail 'pon cra-wa-wa-woss

be careful who unnu nail 'pon cross

things is getting rougher

and some can't find no supper

much less a good breakfast

no

what a lucky thing

say rasta youth nuh waan go gut

say natty dreadlocks gotta hold steadfast

grudges are forbidden

forgive to be forgiven

when a'nedda man trespass

woi

heckle vex with jeckle

and the pot a cuss the kettle

yo

be careful who you nail 'pon cross

be careful who you nail 'pon cra-wa-wa-woss

be careful who unnu nail 'pon cross

be careful who you nail 'pon cra-wa-wa-woss

be careful who unnu nail 'pon cross

today might be for you

but jah might give me tomorrow

so don't count you're eggs too fast

you might talk too soon

then yuh pride haffi swallow

come down off your big high horse

some preaching religion

when inside dem hollow

and a bare judgement them pass

woi

and a gwaan like dem a god

when that's a hard act to follow

be careful who you nail 'pon cross

be careful who unnu nail 'pon cra-wa-wa-woss

be careful who unnu nail 'pon cross

be careful who you nail 'pon cra-wa-wa-woss

be careful who unnu nail 'pon cross

don't throw no word

i beg yuh don't throw no stone

if yuh living in a house of glass

do unto others as you do to your own

you never know when you might cross path

have a look within 'cause another ones win

that should not be your loss

if the tables spin you a laugh up an' a grin

be careful who you nail 'pon cross

be careful who unnu nail 'pon cra-wa-wa-woss

be careful who unnu nail 'pon cross

be careful who you nail 'pon cra-wa-wa-woss

be careful who unnu nail 'pon cross

be careful who unnu nail 'pon cra-wa-wa-woss

be careful who unnu nail 'pon cross

be careful who unnu nail 'pon cra-wa-wa-woss

be careful who unnu nail 'pon cross
