Ten to One Is Murder Eddy Grant

Well, they playin' bad
They got me feelin' sad
Well, if they're playin' beast
Why they run for police?

Ten criminal attack me outside of me gramma
Wey down Henry Street by H.G.N. Walker
It was about ten in the night on the fifth of October
Hey, they said I pushed a young, young girl from Grenada

The leader of the gang, he was a-hot like a pepper
(Ten to one is murder)
And every man in the gang had a white-handled razor
(Ten to one is murder)
Well, I back-back 'til I nearly fall in the gutter
(Ten to one is murder)
Just imagine my position, not a police in the area
(Ten to one is murder)

Oh, ten to one is murder
(Ten to one is murder)
You should've hear them
Ten to one is murder
(Ten to one is murder)

Well, I start to sweat
Man, I'm soaking wet
Mama, so much stress
That's a night I can't forget
