Lyrics

Love and hate can never be friends
Oh no
Oh no
Here I come with love and not hatred
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow I
All the days of my life
Envy no one
No wish to be with no evil man
For there'll come the day
When you'll be whipped by the Father's hand
(Oh-o-o-oh)
Live up roots children
(Oh-o-o-oh)
Whoa yeah
(Oh-o-o-oh)
Live up Rasta children
(Oh-o-o-oh)
Yeah
My head is anointed and my cup runneth ova
Yeah
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow I
All the days of my life
Yeah
Whoa yeah now
Oh yeah
(Oh-o-o-oh)
(Oh-o-o-oh)
(Oh-o-o-oh)
Alright
(Oh-o-o-oh)
Here I come with love and not hatred
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow I
All the days of my life
Envy no one
No wish to be with no evil man
For there'll come the day
When you'll be whipped by the Father's hand
(Oh-o-o-oh)
Live up roots children
(Oh-o-o-oh)
Oh yeah
(Oh-o-o-oh)
Live up roots children
(Oh-o-o-oh)
Oh yeah
Won't give up
Won't give up
Yeah
Oh-woi-woh-oh-o-now
Yeah babe, yeah
Hey
Woh-oh-o-whoa-wai
My head is anointed and my cup runneth ova
Yeah
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow I
All the days of my life
Yeah
Whoa yeah now
Oh yeah
(Oh-o-o-oh)
(Oh-o-o-oh)
(Oh-o-o-oh)
Alright
(Oh-o-o-oh)
Here I come with love and not hatred
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow I
All the days of my life
Envy no one
No wish to be with no evil man
For there'll come the day
When you'll be whipped by the Father's hand
(Oh-o-o-oh
Live up roots children
(Oh-o-o-oh)
Oh yeah
(Oh-o-o-oh)
Live up Rasta children
(Oh-o-o-oh)
Yeah
My head is anointed and my cup runneth ova
Yeah
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow I
All the days of my life
