Anyone know the lyrics to the chorus & song on this one?

http://www.wherehouse.com/music/sound-s ... id=2557427

Produced by Jammy on the 'full up' riddim.

probably wrong then.

No disrespect but I'm not sure about the interpetation of the

"now, im don, now is a donovan

im don, now is a donovan

im don, now is a donovannnnnn"

part, it doesn't sound quite the same.

What exactly is "lingwo"? Does "lingwo"="lingo"?

why the hell you want the lyrics? - to singalong??

just enjoy the tune..

also this is a forum based on mainly roots and dub which is what most people talk about not the raggamuffin digital sound of the tune, thats why you get less replys , so be greatful for the one you got from RankingTrevor..

Why the haughty reply "smiley", he said no disrespect intended, wrong is wrong right is right. Turn that frown upside-down; certainly better understanding leads to greater appreciation.

A lot of reggae lyrics are difficult to understand. I’ve had trouble with Toot & the Maytals “Sweet & Dandy”: “One more???.. ‘pon the wedding cake, twenty bottles of ???… wine, ?????????…. never been to school at all….”

Or how about the intro to Scotty’s “Draw your Brakes”: “Forward on pyaka, man ???.. and then go???..” What does that mean?

Another one is Clancy Eccles’ intro in “Fatty Fatty” just sounds like scatting but sometimes it sounds like he’s saying something like “Play on, play on”

BTW I have no idea what Pinchers is saying, good tune ‘kenpoman’-thanks for sharing, nice try ‘ranking trevor’.

What's wrong with singing along or trying to figure out the lyrics to a song? When I saw Bob Marley live in Germany and London nearly the whole crowd would chant along with him. "Woy-yo, woy-yo-yo-yo-yo!"

Well as Michael Rose would say, "Don't show I your teeth, plastic smile can't work."

Jah Bless.
