Roots, Radicals, Rockers And Reggae

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You roots, you radicals, you rock to the reggae

You roots, you radicals, you dub to the reggae

you roots, you radicals, you skank to the reggae, you roots

Let there be peace in the east, peace in the west

You roots, you radicals and all the rest

I said peace up north, peace down south

Peace in the ghettoes all round about

We are all in a one and one in all

So throw away the guns and the war's all gone

Throw away the hunger and the war's all gone

Throw away the fighting and the war's all gone

Throw away the grudges and the war's all gone.

C'mon you roots, you radicals, you rock to the reggae

You roots, you radicals, you dub to the reggae

You roots, you radicals, you skank to the reggae, you roots

Love and respect you itren and protect your little sistren

And the same shall return to you, my friend

I said don't fight against no colour class or creed

For on discrimination does violence breed

I said we are all in a one and on in all

So throw away the guns and the war's all gone

Throw away the hunger and the war's all gone

Throw away the fighting and the war's all gone

Throw away the grudges and war's all gone

C'mon you roots, you radicals, you rock to the reggae

You roots, you radicals, you dub to the reggae

You roots, you radials, you skank to the reggae, you roots

Come on now

Comfort the afflicted and keep them from harm

Let age be protected and the infants be strong

Go for it!

You got to pass the bowl and make the food go round

Cos that's the only way to trample crime to the ground

Equal rights and justice for one and all

Cos only through liberty freedom shall form

Don't fight against no colour class nor creed

For on discrimination does violence breed

We are all in a one and one in all

So throw away the guns and the war's all gone

Throw away the hunger and the war's all gone

Throw away the fighting and the war's all gone

Throw away the guns and the war's all gone

Throw away the hunger and the war's all gone

Throw away the fighting and the war's all gone

Throw away the grudges and the war's all gone
