De musical t'ing call "Gun Man"
An' I'd like y' to answer question:
Seh, gun man, seh tell me whey you get yuh gun from ?
You mus 'a get it from the foreign
A tell you that they cos' one million (do it!)
You don't kill out the 'oman, don't kill out the man
I know seh you don't kill the younger one
I don' know how you goin' start fun (?)
A maybe Joe Joe science a Yellowman
Gun man, seh tell me whey you get yuh gun from
You mus 'a get it from the foreign
You mus 'a tek seh me a politician
You don' know seh me a musician
'Ca me seh star, star, no gimme SLR
Star, star, no gimme SLR
You coulda come from near, you come from far
You white like snow, you black like tar
A M16 in a Vietnam type (?) war

You kill out a whole family
You put it pon Robbie, they say you wicked
You sit ina de greener (?) and star you wanted
Seh, gun man, seh tell me whey you get yuh gun from
You mus 'a get it from the foreign
You wan' come shoot dung your own black man (do it!)
'Ca dis a AK 47, is a AK 47
'Ca tell you that they gun run sweeter(?) now than ever
'Ca dis a AK 47
Gun man, a-if you have a gun you mus' hit and a-run
If you have a gun you mus' hit and a-run
'Ca dis is our island in de sun
Dis is our island in de sun
Just get one girl and go have some fun
Go get one girl and go have some fun
Gun man, tell me whey you get yuh gun from
You mus 'a get it from the foreign
You wan' come shoot dung your own black man, remember
Gun shot a it nuh respect no one
Gun shot a it nuh respect no one
It kill soldier man, it kill our citizen (?)
It kill soldier man, it kill police man
It kill police man, also bad man
It kill bad man, also civilian
It kill civilian, also christian
It kill any man, also human
Gun man, seh tell me whey you get de gun from
You mus 'a get it from the foreign
you wan' come shoot dung your own black man (do it!)
A whey you can go when Jah right time ?
De wicked a go melt like a butter 'gainst sun
De dread 'pon those who a fire dem gun
Nuh worry dey us, Iyah, a have we likkle fun
De gun man dey a 'ell, a tek fire bun
Gun man, seh tell me whey you get yuh gun from ?
You mus 'a get it from the foreign
you all come shoot dung your own black man.........
