Say, Natty Dreadlocks in the mountain chanting

Tell you, Natty Dreadlocks in the mountain chanting

Natty Dread drinking water from the fountainTell you, Natty drinking water from the fountain

While the birds in the tree top singing

Daughters in the garden cultivating

Youths in the lawn near playing

Dread inna the mountain chanting

Babylon in the city feel haunted

Check say, Natty Dreadlocks in the mountain wanting

Babylon lead us quite into the mountain

But when dem come they sight us chanting

Dread inna the mountain chanting

Dread inna the mountain chanting, Natty Dread

Dread inna the mountain chanting

Dread inna the mountain chanting

Chanting unto Jah, whoa oh

Chanting unto Jah, whoa oh

Natty Dread drinking water from the fountain

Tell you, Natty drinking water from the fountain

Babylon come inna the mountain

Ask the Rastaman what cooking, Dreadlock said

Coco, banana and plantain

Nah leave the peas and pumpkin

Inna the mountain I sit?

Dread inna the mountain chanting

Dread inna the mountain chanting

Drinking water from the fountain

Tell you, Natty drinking water from the fountain

Birds in the tree top singing songs of love

Daughters in the garden cultivating food

Youths in the lawn near playing

Hear Iyabinghi I chanting

Wicked Babylon in the city feel haunted

Check say, Natty Dreadlocks in the mountain wanting

Babylon, leading government inna the mountain

Dreadlocks in the mountain chanting

Tell you, Natty Dreadlocks in the mountain chanting

Lightning, thunder

Brimstone and fire

Earthquake, thunder

Brimstone and fire
