Ziggy Marley - Water and Oil Lyrics


Ziggy Marley Lyrics

Water and Oil Lyrics
Dem try fi hold hold wha dem can't conquer

Rastaman no mix up with no vagavanga

[repeat]

They want to condemn the innocent

For crimes which we did not committ

They want to get good people mix up

In their bag of tricks



But water and oil can't mix

Water and oil don't mix

[repeat]



Say dem try fi hold hold wha dem can't conquer

Rastaman no mix up with no vagavanga

[repeat]



Hear this! naah go like the son if you no like the father

True we manifest under the same order

Cock your ears and listen me want you hear ya part ya

But first come in papa Ziggy as the eldest brother

Yes I hear the lies they've told

Dem says Rasta did this and this

What is the politican role

Is it to create conflicts



But water and oil can't mix

Water and oil don't mix

[repeat]



Jah who I praise break your silence

Now that the wicked is accusing

Attacking for no reason

All we did was pray for them

Now the way things happen fast

Some things me naah go member

But the day did cool cool and collective lya

Nest thing me know some unwanted visitors

Some devil worshipping Rasta hating cold-blooded murdera

Never get wha dem expect dem expect lamb fi slaughter



Hear this! This is Ragamuffin and him hitting harder

We get up from weh we sit down to a strategic corner

Me and the bwoy dem eye mek four me mek a nervous swallow

Prip around from left to right me look pon all me brother

Hold me head to the sky and make a final prayer

Zoom! zoom! And everything take cover

Look how fast lightning rod back out in all a dem face

Quick! Me back out me no member wha it name

Them never know the youth them would not lose them faith

Through the grace of the Father everything set straight



But water and oil can't mix

Water and oil don't mix

[repeat]
