Lyrics
Man! You think a likkle, think a likkle
Think a likkle, think a likkle
Innocent blood shed down there
Way down inna Babylon there, oh, oh
You think a likkle, think a likkle
Think a likkle, think a likkle
Innocent blood shed down there
An innocent thing there
One year after slavery
The people were all suffering from small pox
Ooh yeah, I say
George William Gordon was Justice of the Peace
At Morant Bay during that time
So he sent abroad for some of his doctors friends
To come and administer unto them
To see what they could do, oh, oh
And because he did such a good
They catch him and hang him on top ring the Cotton tree, whoa oh
Man, if you think a lie I a tell
Take a look upon the ten dollar bill, whoa oh. it true
There you can see him with his neck wrapped up
There he was hung with his eye glass on (Jah know)
Man! You think a likkle, think a likkle
Think a likkle, think a likkle
Innocent blood shed down there
Listen to what I am saying
You think a likkle, think a likkle
Think a likkle, think a likkle
Innocent blood shed down there
(.)
Paul Boggle walked from Spanish Town to Stony Gut
For the justice of black mankind, whoa, oh, oh
Nine men and himself make ten
When he reached Spanish Town
They refused to hear what he was saying, - man
So they walked away and say:
"Come on, let us form our own government", whoa, oh, oh
Then straight after that you could see
Where the rebellion, rebellion start
Whoa, oh, oh, man, hear what I'm saying
Man! You think a likkle, think a likkle
Think a likkle, think a likkle
Innocent blood shed down there
Don't believe I, but believe the history book, it say
You think a likkle, think a likkle
Think a likkle, think a likkle
Innocent blood shed down there
You're to forgive but you're not to forget
You think a likkle, think a likkle
Think a likkle, think a likkle
Innocent blood shed down there
Jah know this all, yeah
You think a likkle, think a likkle
Think a likkle, think a likkle
Innocent blood shed down there
Too hot in the ghetto, yeah
Jahoviah know, Jahoviah, yeah
Think a likkle, think a likkle
Think a likkle, think a likkle
Innocent blood shed down there
Don't you forget that, I say
Please forgive and be peaceful
You think a likkle, think a likkle
Think a likkle, think a likkle
Don't jook them more of that
(Innocent blood shed down there)
