Sizzla Subterranean Homesick Blues lyrics

(As for those)
In the basement
(Marijuana's)
The medicine

(And those)
On the pavement
(Burning down the false)
Government

The man in the trench coat
Badge out, laid off
Says he's got a bad cough
Wants to get it paid off

Look out kid
It's something you did
(Jah)
Knows when
But you're doin' it again

You better duck down the alley way
Lookin' for a new friend
The man in the coon-skin cap
In the big pen, wants eleven dollar bills
You only got ten

Maggie comes fleet foot
Face full of black soot
Talkin' that the heat put
Plants in the bed but

The phone's tapped anyway
Maggie says that many say
They must bust in early May
Orders from the D.A.

Look out kid
Don't matter what you did
Walk on your tip toes
Don't try ‽No Doz”

Better stay away from those
That carry around a fire hose
Keep a clean nose
Watch
(Those)
Plain clothes
You don't need a weather man
To know which way the wind blows

(You)
Get sick
(Then)
Get well

Hang around an ink well
(Things fell)
Hard to tell
If anything is goin' to sell

Try hard, get barred
Get back, write Braille
Get jailed, jump bail
(Don't stop, you don't)
Fail

Look out kid
You're gonna get hit
By users, cheaters
Six-time losers
Hang around the theaters

Girl by the whirlpool
Lookin' for a new fool
Don't follow leaders
Watch the parkin' meters

Ah get born, keep warm
(Girls come)
Learn to dance
Get dressed, get blessed
Try to be a success

Please her
(To please me)
Don't steal, don't
(Shop)
Lift
Twenty years of schoolin'
And they put you on the day shift

Look out kid
They keep it all hid
(You come out from the dark zone)
Light yourself a
(Fire torch)

Wear
(Your)
Sandals
Try to avoid the scandals

Don't wanna be a bum
(Get yourself a gun)
The pump don't work
â€~Cause the vandals took the handles
