It's originally a 1960s Ken Boothe song which he updated himself in the 1970s and again in the 1990s (that time with Shaggy). So you might want to track one of those down.

But I don't think it's a riddim that has been widely used for other vocal, DJ or Dub versions.

One of the few is Big Youth's "Train To Rhodesia"
