Jimmy Cliff - Hold Tight Lyrics

Well it's an eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth

In this struggle for our survival
Your best friend can be your biggest rival
If we must live by the laws of the jungle
Like dogs and pigs to rumble and tumble now

And it's an eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth
It's an eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth

It's a war for world domination
You've got to stand and
Declare your posession
Cause we're the righteous won't
Be the agressors
But we will fight against oppressors now

Then it's an eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth
Because it's an eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth
Because a lie is a lie
And the truth is the truth
So it's an eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth
Hold I, hold to your brush
Hold I, be on your boundry
Hold I, don't you let go now
Hold I, yeah yeah

Eye for an eye tooth for a tooth

And we know we won't be the losers
We'll be the victors, or be the martyrs
Cause we're fighting in the way of the most I
That's how we know we shall not die now

Hold I, hold to your brush
Hold I, be on your boundry
Hold I, don't you let go hold I

Chourse

We won't be the agressors
Fight downpressors now
And dis ya jungle laws here me say

Hold I my brush don't you let go man
