smoking is a habit, some men can't maintain it. they come on your corner and beg you sensimilia, you give them sensimilia they beg you rizla, you give them rizla they borrow your lighter. To give away I don't feel no way, but everyday you a come fi the sensi.
Understand?

A Ganzie is an 'undergarment': ussually a fishnetshirt in Jamaica, but a T-shirt also qualifies.
a Nicks Ganzie, is a (New York)Knicks shirt.
Clarks Dessert Boots or Bankrobbers (Dessert treks) have been around since the 60s or so, and have been the choice of shoe for rudeboys since those days and still remain ubercool in Ja..
Little John and Vybz Kartel are singing about the same shoes

You're probably right!!...i dont know where Nugs got his Nicks ganzie quote from, he must have misheard a T for a K..
a Knicks Ganzie is well possible off course!Very popular because of New york and Patrick Ewing being of JA heritage (...hmm it seems i AM stuck in the 90s for real,haha)
or it could be Nick's Ganzie....although in Jamaican one would say 'Fe Nick Ganzie', which could be misinterpretated as 'Phoenix Ganzie'.. being a teamshirt of the Phoenix Suns...hhhaaaaargghhhh
anyway.. Happy new year Roots Archivites!!!

dolly = Dally = 70s slang for riding playfully on a bicylce or motorbike ( doing wheeley's and other stunts etc..)
to "dally" is to go in the general direction of somewhere ("mi a dally uptown") with no particular urgency, whether by foot or some other form of transport.
when i was a kid, the term for "riding playfully"... kind of weaving back and forth on an S-90 or similar morotcycle with your knees out slightly because the bike was kinda small was called "spanging".
