Jamaican Child Eddy Grant

(Shabba-yabba-yabba, babe)
Squeeze me, darling
(Shabba-yabba-yabba, babe)
Hold me, honey
(Shabba-yabba-yabba, babe, yeah)
I said, feel, ah, feel, feel

(Shabba-yabba-yabba, babe)
Hold me, darling
(Shabba-yabba-yabba, babe)
Hold me, baby
(Shabba-yabba-yabba, babe, yeah)
I said, feel, ah...

Jamaican child, Jamaican child
Say they wanna stop you running wild
Say they wanna cut off your dreadlocks, child
Oh, Jamaican child, Jamaican child
Say they wanna stop you running wild
Say they wanna cut off your dreadlocks, child, ah...

Hear they put a price tag on your food
Enough to make a rich man brood
Oh, the other thing
You never knowing who is who
They wanna find out how you breed
Oh, read the fine print when you read
You know there ain't no other way, oh, child
