Lyrics
[Verse 1]
What a joy to hear the utterance from a Rasta
What a joy to hear the utterance from a Rasta
[Verse 2]
Long long, ago they used to say
Rastafari going around taking little children away
But now the time is at hand
And I know those saying are wrong
And now Rasta, let them know their homeland
And see their culture
[Verse 3]
What a joy to hear the utterance from a Rasta
What a joy to hear the utterance from a Rasta
[Verse 4]
I and I was granted to drink from the fountain of life
I God make I hold tight
I and I knees will not wobble
I and I VIP international
And now them up put Rasta on the air
Before that they used to live, live in fear
[Verse 5]
What a joy to hear the utterance from a Rasta
What a joy to hear the utterance from a Rasta
What a joy to hear the utterance of Rasta
[Verse 6]
There's a way that seemeth right to a man
And yet in Jah Jah sight it's wrong
It's not what you do, it's how you do it
It's not what you say but how you say it
You're going, you're going, you're going
You're gonna be up with it
Down in it
[Verse 7]
What a joy to hear the utterance from a Rasta
What a joy to hear the utterance from a Rasta
What a joy to hear the utterance from a Rasta
What a joy to hear the utterance from a Rasta
What a joy to hear the utterance from a Rasta
