on the first day of christmas, my feelings wasn't good
i am brukker than bruk, i don't know what to do in this year
on the second day of christmas, my belly start to roar
pickney out a door, and i don't know what to really do
on the third day of christmas, the rent man start to bawl
bailiff out a door, and i don't know what to do this year
on the fourth day of christmas the people whispering
i can't get a privacy and i don't know what to really do
on the fifth day of christmas i try and get a work
sweep out the office mix likkle coffee
and i just feeling little better now
on the sixth day of christmas i get a likkle pay
money here and ??? cause i buy pickney's shoes and clothes
on the seventh day of christmas i driving through town
christmas tree a light, babylon a bite and i end up over central
on the ninth day of christmas tings not looking good
policeman start to beat i up and i don't really do nothing
on the tenth day of christmas i start to look alive???
police man said no bail til next year this time
i know next year this time things will looking great
cause i should a be out to see the twelth day of christmas
so me smoke up the herb in a central ???
spend the christmas inside a jail and everybody sing

Never heard this version before!
The only other reggae version of this I heard was by Peter Broggs, entitled 12 Days Of Christmas, naturally (on the Trojan Christmas Box Set), and again naturally he celebrates xmas by smoking the good collie and the strong sensi!!

not sure, just guessing :)
brukker than bruk = broker than broke..
money here and ??? cause i buy = money here a maga as i buy..
to look alive??? = to look a lion..
in a central ??? = in a central noun.. central lounge.. central now..
btw this site has helped I since long time:
