Jimmy Cliff - Bob yu did yu job

Tekst :

Many things have been said about you, some false, some true
Not because everyone is saying why I’m saying too
What I have to say needs to be said, because it’s true
You gave the people in your song the essence of the truth

Your passage through this life
Was a great big gift to humanity
And I reference you really and truly
Oh Bob Marley

Bob yu did yu job, yow-yow-yow-yow
Bob yu did yu job, yow-yow-yow-yow
Bob yu did yu job, yow-yow-yow-yow
Brother Bob yu did yu job, yoga-yoga-yow-yow

Touch the hearts of so many people, specially the grass-roots
And you made so many disciple while you touch mine too
More than anyone in this century and I can name a few:
More than Beatles and Beach Boys and Elvis Presley and the Rolling Stones
Yes, and even more than mega star Michael Jackson

Bob yu did yu job, yow-yow-yow-yow
Bob yu did yu job, yow-yow-yow-yow
Bob yu did yu job, yow-yow-yow-yow
Brother Bob yu did yu job, yoga-yoga-yow-yow

Then your spirit all the singers and players of music of today
A higher inspiration might we had in yesterday
You were a saint who never depart from the normal way
Of true reggae, reggae philosophy

Bob yu did yu job, yow-yow-yow-yow
Bob yu did yu job, yow-yow-yow-yow
Bob yu did yu job (a true), yow-yow-yow-yow
Brother Bob yu did yu job (true), yocka-yocka-yow-yow

Your passage through this life
Was a great big gift (a true) to humanity
And I reference you really and truly
Brother Bob Marley

Brother Bob yu did yu job (a true), yoga-yoga-yow-yow
Brother Bob yu did yu job (true), yow-yow-yow-yow
Brother Bob yu did yu job (a true), yoga-yoga-yow-yow
Brother Bob yu did yu job (true)...

    Rebel in me

    If the rebel in me
    Can touch the rebel in you
    And the rebel in you
    Can touch the rebel in me
    And the rebels we be
    Is gonna set us free
    Then it would bring out the rebel
    Bring out the rebel...

    Twister

    I need to hear you say goodbye.
    I don t know why I hang around.
    You will soothe the pain within my eyes
    and then you leave without a sound.

    Chorus:

    Show me a sign and I m
    taking you home.
    Give me the time to show
    how...

    The webs we weave

    So grab this statement
    And read between the lines
    I m walking on an edge
    That s how I stay alive
    I need a fix now
    The pills I have to take
    It helps me live a lie
    and blinds all my mistakes

    before I die
    I will have seen it all
    the mountains I have climbed
    help me enjoy...

    Amame

    Siempre estoy pensando
    En tu amor y nada mas
    Cansada de este sueno
    Quiero hacerlo realidad
    Que sigas en mi amor estoy perdiendo
    En encontrar
    El tiempo esta pasando y no puedo esperar
    Porque estar sin ti
    Es como no vivir
    Si tu me hicieras tuya yo seria feliz

    On the old kentucky shore

    Chorus:

    Up along the Ohio River
    Over on the old Kentucky shore
    Once dwelt a fair young maiden
    Now there s a crepe upon her door

    I walk down to the graveyard
    Down by the Church of God
    I looked upon...
