A so dreadlocks so (oh-oh-oh)

Dreadlocks man must face tribulation
No matter what they do
Babylon-dem ready to pressure us
Watchin' every little thing they do
If dem sight a hustle
Babylon-dem don't like dat
Dem just feel like fight 'gainst dreadlocks
I an' I know that's a fact

In time so hard, natty must come over with
Friends who know that he must achieve it
Just love Jah an' trod easy, you'll reach mount Zion high
In time so hard, natty must come over with

Watch your step, natty dreadlocks
Be careful of what you do

Before you know, I through

Yes, you will feel the shame, dreadlocks
You will have to survive at dis forfitical day
