Jail House by Junior Reid Lyrics
[Intro]
Frustration (Wooy)
Brutalization (No go there, man, no)
[Chorus]
It was a dreadful day
Babylon take mi away
Carry I to one cell
This is what I see everyday
[Post-Chorus]
Use razor cutters to cut matches in four
Cah, we don't sure to get no more
No-no-no more (Oh-oy)
No more (Yeah)
[Verse 1]
Ten men to one spliff day
Took her in a ounce per day (Yeah)
Lord, we eye go red
Like wild monkey be, I tell you (Well, wooy)
Take me from my wonderful home (Oh)
Brought me down here in Rome (Oh)
Somе of us got use one comb
[Post-Verse]
None of it no nicе (Oh-oh)
Must get lice (Realise)
It no nice (No!)
[Chorus]
It was a dreadful day (Yeah)
Babylon take mi away
Carry I to one cell
This is what I see everyday (Oh, yeah)
