big up the lion dem weh roar fi a cause
defend your community at all cost
stand your ground to the last
no old woman purse can't get grab of
no juvenile 'pon the road after dark
no visitors can get rob inna the park
else bwoy will finish before dem start
no shotta can gi' no juvenile gun
no stinginess when the site money run
no lickkle shop can get bruk inna the slum
all who perpetrator haffi pack up and run
no man do more dem share of kegs
one voice a talk just like simeon says
no man no thief when the ackee tree bear
it mek war bruk out and it happen each year
no man no frowns when a man a mek food
no shot no buss when a man a keep treat
no man no disturb the children peace
no car no bruk when you hear dancehall keep
burn up like rizzla sheet
dem hear say me soon come
no man no talk when the general speak
me and unno. dem go rob the chiney man and that a disrespect
and a gwaan like dem a don an' still a money nah mek
and a gwaan like dem a captain a the damn ship wreck
soon the nuff a dem a suffer damn twist neck
all violators know what come next
certain bwoy fi disappear 'pon a magic carpet
nuisance get weh dem fi get
a we a guard dem out a street
late at night when dem a sleep
kids in bed and counting sheep
and when they wake up inna the morning
no man to more than dem share of greens
no man no frowns when no fish nah steam
no man no frowns when the pot waan clean
no man no drink out the don spurline
no man go road weh the big man said
no man no greedy a nah bruk bread
no man no go 'round the royal laws
me and unno. a we a guard dem out a street
late at night when dem a sleep
a we a guard dem out a street
late at night when dem a sleep
a we a guard dem out a street
late at night when dem a sleep
a we a guard dem out a street
