Mama is crying by Teacha Dee Lyrics
Intro:
Mama she's crying
Oh yeah
Tell dem seh Teacha says
No more war
Yo tell dem seh Teacha says
No more war
Verse:
Yo, a six months now mama no see her son
She never want the boy bruk out a Kingston
So she send him go a country fi cool and sit dung
Fi help him grandfather weh plant up a ground
She never know say him woulda reach to a gun
Cause as far as she know a that run Kingston
And now the boy dead and she stand up and a look upon the body inna the casket lie down
Chorus:
Mama she's crying
All alone
The one son she have
Him dead by gunshot
Now she's on her own
Verse:
If she coulda exchange she woulda turn back the time
Go inna the box and put him inna the line
A young little youth him nuh reach twenty nine
She neva know seh him woulda die by crime
She think seh the country did safer than the town
She neva know the gun dem reach all around
She have a sinking feeling when timing go down
Six foot six underground
Chorus
Verse:
Across the country a so crime a gwaan
The likklest of youth dem nah keep calm
Every day every night dem nuh stop beat corn
And if dem nuh stop then the whole future gone
Who a go run the [?] and the [?]
And who a go try beat Asafa record
If dem nuh stop make history as murder mystery
Then mi say the whole future gone
Chorus
Mama she's crying
