Lyrics
[Chorus]
Play I some music, this a reggae music
Play I some music, this a reggae music
Roots, rock, reggae, this a reggae music
Roots, rock, reggae, this a reggae music
[Verse 1]
Hey, Mr. Music, you sure sound good to me
I can't refuse it, what do we got to be?
Feel like dancin', dance 'cause we are free
Feel like dancin', come dance with me
[Chorus]
Roots, rock, reggae, this a reggae music
Roots, rock, reggae, yeah, this a reggae music
Play I some music, this a reggae music
Play I some music, this a reggae music
[Verse 2]
Play I on the R&B, whoa-oh-oh, want all my people to sing
We're bubblin' on the top one hundred, just like a mighty dread
Play I on the R&B, want all my people to see
We're bubblin' on the top one hundred, just like a mighty dread
[Chorus]
Roots, rock, reggae, this a reggae music, uh-huh
Roots, rock, reggae, ee-mi duba, this a reggae music
Play I some music, this a reggae music
Play I some music, this a reggae music
[Bridge]
This a reggae music
This a reggae music
[Verse 3]
Play I on the R&B, want all my people to sing
We're bubblin' on the top one hundred, just like a mighty dread
[Chorus]
Play I some music, this a reggae music
Play I some music, this a reggae music
[Outro]
This a reggae music
This a reggae music
