This Old Man
Now dedicate this one to all the children
In Jamaica and all over the world
Coming from king Yellowman, you know? (Watch this)
Yellowman, he played one
He played knick-knack on my drum
With a knick-knack, paddy whack, give a dog a bone
Yellowman come rolling home
Yellowman, he played two
Me tell you no lie, man, me tell you the truth
Me favorite color is yellow and blue
You love me and I love you
Yellowman, he played three
All of the girls them say they love me
So me left from Jamaica and go a Miami
Me live in a the town and not the country
Yellowman, he played four
Me left from Jamaica and gone pon tour
Fe go sing fe the rich and sing fe the poor
Yellowman him a go tell you the score
Yellowman, he played five
Me love reggae music, me keep it alive
And me want fe me honey, me go a bee hive
That's why Yellowman him haffi strive
Me climb from the bottom then me reach to the top
Tell you Yellowman him a the king of the crop
Nuff a talk 'bout me slim but me know me no fat
Right a now man me hot pon the spot
1 o'clock, 2 o'clock, 3 o'clock rock
4 o'clock, 5 o'clock, me rock non-stop
Tell you Yellowman he just a work round the clock
Everybody know say me hot 'pon the spot
Yellowman, he played six
Me is a teacher with a lot apprentice
And everybody says that me full of lyrics
Some a talk 'bout that but listen to this
Yellowman, he played seven
No one wanna die but they want go heaven
And you step on me foot I beg your pardon
Sometimes things happen fe a reason
Yellowman, he played eight
Great is great, great shouldn't underrate
Me love for me cassette and me love for me tape
Excuse me now me going on a date
Yellowman, he played nine
Me look pon me watch and me tell you the time
You want to know it's quarter to nine
All a the girls make me feel so fine
Yellowman, he played ten
Pass me the paper, pass me the pen
I gonna write a letter to me girlfriend
And tell her fe come back again
Me under me roots and plus me culture
Open the bible me read up the scripture
All the children down in a Africa
All the children down in America
All the children over in a Canada
What happen to the place what they call Cuba?
Na forget the place named Jamaica
Saint Lucia and down in a Africa
Yellowman, he played one
He played knick-knack on my drum
With a knick-knack, paddy whack, give a dog a bone
Yellowman is rolling home
Yellowman, he played two
Me favorite color man a yellow and blue
And you love me and i love you
I never turn my back on you
Yellowman, he played three
All of the girls them say they love me
So me left from Jamaica and go a Miami
Me live a Kingston I don't live a country
Yellowman, he played four
Me left from Jamaica and gone pon tour...
In Jamaica and all over the world
Coming from king Yellowman, you know? (Watch this)
Yellowman, he played one
He played knick-knack on my drum
With a knick-knack, paddy whack, give a dog a bone
Yellowman come rolling home
Yellowman, he played two
Me tell you no lie, man, me tell you the truth
Me favorite color is yellow and blue
You love me and I love you
