Lyrics Bob Marley - Stand Alone

Lyrics Bob Marley - Stand Alone


There you are, cryin' again
But your loveliness won't cover your shame
There you are, you're takin' true love
And while you're takin' true love, you given the blame

(How could I) Could I be so wrong
To think that we could get along?
Days I wasted with you, child
If I count there'll be a million or two
Now I stand alone through the memories
That haunts me, that haunt
Yeah, and I walk alone through the rhapsodies
That taunts me, that taunts me, me

There you are, cryin' again
But your loveliness won't cover your shame
There you are, you're takin' true love
And while you're takin' true love, given the blame

(How could I) How could I be so wrong
To think that we could get along?
Days I wasted with you, child
If I count there'll be a million or two
Now I stand alone through the memories
That haunts me, that haunts (me)
And I walk alone through the rhapsodies
That taunts me, that taunts me

Now, there you are, cryin' again
But your loveline-ness won't cover your sham-ame, hey
There you are, you're takin' true lo-love
While you're takin' true lo-love, given the blame

(How could I) How could I

Roots Natty roots
Dread Binghi dread

To cook their raw food
Whoa, look at that

In iration
They say roots Natty roots
Dread Binghi dread
I and I are the roots
Some are wolf
In sheep's clothing
Whoa, look at that
Many are called
A few are chosen
Whoa, look at that
Nothing they can do
To separate I and I
From the love of our fathers
You see, blood is thicker than water
Whoa, look at that
Got to survive
In the ghetto
Got to survive
People ....

Dread Binghi dread
I and I are the roots

Lyrics Bob Marley - Get Up, Stand Up

Lyrics Bob Marley - Get Up, Stand Up


Get up, stand up, stand up for your right
Get up, stand up, stand up for your right
Get up, stand up, stand up for your right
Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight

Preacher man don't tell me heaven is under the earth
I know you don't know what life is really worth
Is not all that glitters in gold and
Half the story has never been told
So now you see the light, aay
Stand up for your right. Come on

Get up, stand up, stand up for your right
Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight
(Repeat)

Most people think great God will come from the sky
Take away ev'rything, and make ev'rybody feel high
But if you know what life is worth
You would look for yours on earth
And now you see the light
You stand up for your right, yeah!

Get up, stand up, stand up for your right
Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight
Get up, stand up. Life is your right
So we can't give up the fight
Stand up for your right, Lord, Lord
Get up, stand up. Keep on struggling on
Don't give up the fight

We're sick and tired of your ism and skism game
Die and go to heaven in Jesus' name, Lord
We know when we understand
Almighty God is a living man
You can fool some people sometimes
But you can't fool all the people all the time
So now we see the light
We gonna stand up for our right

So you'd better get up, stand up, stand up for your right
Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight
Get up, stand up, stand up for your right
Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight

Lyrics Bob Marley - African Herbsman

Lyrics Bob Marley - African Herbsman


All twinklin' lee
Can't see the right roads when the streets are paved
The old slave men might grind slow
But it grinds fine, yeah

African herbsman, why linger on?
Just concentrate, 'cause heaven lives on
Retired slave men will look with a scorn
With a transplanted heart (yes, how quick they had to part)
(how quick they had to part)

The remembrance of today
Is the sad feelin' of tomorrow
(how quick) Oh (part), oh yeah

African herbsman, seize your time
I'm takin' illusion on the edge of my mind
I'm takin' losers down through my life
Down through my life, yeah (yes, how quick they had to part)
(how quick they had to part)

Dideh part, yes, they part
In remembrance of today
(how quick they had to part)

African herbsman, why linger on?
Just concentrate, 'cause your heaven lives on
Greet-I-eth slave men will look with a scorn
With a transplanted heart, yes, how (quick they have to part)
(how quick they have to part)

In remembrance of today
Brings sad feelings of tomorrow
(Yes, how quick they have to) Lead me on, oh, Lord, I pray to you

(African herbsman) (African herbsman)

Lyrics Bob Marley - Friends And Lovers


Oh, we are friends and lovers forever
Oh, yes, we're friends and lovers forever

I had a heart full of love, I had to get to anywhere
Then you came along way and lovin' right you did to it
Oh, you love me even though I make you ask for it
And even when I need you, well, I can't make you ask for it

Because we are friends and lovers forever
Oh, yes, we're friends and lovers forever
Yeah, yeah, yeah

We become so familiar with the asking of each other
Oh, we even grow with the asking and the giving of each other
Oh, they say love is someone you can't fill yourself with
So when I'm hung up with you all I want
I want to be [Incomprehensible]

Baby, baby, take it, take it
Say that you want more, more
Baby, baby, take it, take it
That's what love is for, yeah

Because we are friends and lovers forever
Oh, yes we're friends and lovers forever

Lyrics Bob Marley - Smoke 2 Joints


I smoke two joints in the morning
I smoke two joints at night,
I smoke two joints in the afternoon
And it makes me feel alright
I smoke two joints in time of peace
And two in time of war
Smoke two joints before I smoke two joints
And then I smoke two more

Yeah that's what I do, hey

Mama she always told me son you really have it bad
Mama she always told me son you do the best you can
Then one day I met a man he came to me and said
I work good and I work fine but first take care of him

I smoke two joints in the morning
I smoke two joints at night
I smoke two joints in the video game
And it mkes me feel alright
I smoke two joints in the time of peace
And two in time of war
I smoke two joints before I smoke two joints
And then I smoke two more

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

One peace one time
Funny days, funny days
Gimme that bassline

Lyrics Bob Marley - Why Should I

Lyrics Bob Marley - Why Should I


Why should I bend down my head and cry?
Why should I bend down my head and cry?
The old world has ended,
The new world has just begun.
And all them people that live therein
Shall live on and on.
One more thing:
Got to get what I need,
Got to get what I want.
Got to get what I need,
Got to get what I want.
Got to get satisfaction,
Got to get the action.
Got love and affection.
One more thing:
Once there was two roads before us
To pick our choice.
But good has overcome bad.
The sheep has heard their master's voice.
So tell me why.
Why should I bend down my head and cry?
No reason why.
Why should I bend down my head and cry?
(Got to move) Got to groove.
Got to get what I want.
What did you say?
Got to get it.
Got to get what I need.
Got to get what I want.
Like I say, got to get it.
Got to get what I need... Satisfaction.
The old world has ended,
The new world has just begun.
And all them people that live therein
Shall live on and on.
One more thing:
Why should I bend down my head and cry?
My father is a king.
Why should I bend down my head and cry?
All the riches in the earth.
So tell me why,
Why should I bend down my head and cry?

Lyrics Bob Marley - Dreamland


There's a land that I have heard about

So far across the sea (repeat)

To have you all, my dreamland

Would be like heaven to me (repeat)



We'll get our breakfast from the tree

We'll get our honey from the bees

We'll take a ride on the waterfalls

And all the glories, we'll have them all



And we'll live together on that dreamland

And have so much fun (repeat)

Oh, what a time that will be

Oh yes, we'll wait, wait, wait and see

We'll count the stars up in the sky...



...And surely we'll never die

Lyrics Bob Marley - Teenager In Love

Lyrics Bob Marley - Teenager In Love


Each night I ask, the stars up above
Why must I be a teenager in love
Why must I be a teenager in love
Put me in your milling machine,

I never thought you could act so mean
Now I'm wondering what to do,
To see if you could love me too
Each night I ask, the stars up above

Why must I be a teenager in love
Why must I be a teenager in love

Each night I ask the stars up above
Why must I be a teenager in love
Why must I be a teenager in love
Though my knees are getting weak,

And my brain is getting flatter
Something is near, to tell me it's been badder
I don't know just what to do,
To see if you could love me too

Each night I ask the stars up above
Why must I be a teenager in love
Why must I be a teenager in love
