I was walkin' down the street
Concentratin' on truckin' right
I heard a dark voice beside of me
And I looked round in a state of fright
I saw four faces, one mad
A brother from the gutter
They looked me up and down a bit
And turned to each other

I say
I don't like cricket oh no
I love it
I don't like cricket no no
I love it
Don't you walk through my words
Got to show some respect
Don't you walk through my words
'Cause you ain't heard me out yet

Well he looked down at my silver chain
He said "I'll give you one dollar"
I said "you got to be jokin' man,
it was a present from me Mother"
He said "I like it, I want it,
I'll take it off your hands
And you'll be sorry you crossed me
You'd better understand that you're alone,
A long way from home!"

I say
I don't like reggae no no
I love it
I don't like reggae
I love it
Don't you cramp me style
Don't you queer me pitch
Don't you walk through my words
'Cause you ain't heard me out yet

I hurried back to the swimming pool
Sinkin' Pina Calarda
I heard a dark voice beside me say
"Would you like something harder"
She said "I've got it, you want it,
My harvest is the best
And if you try it, you'll like it
And whollow in a Dreadlock Holiday"

And I say
Don't like Jamaica oh no
I love her
Don't like Jamaica oh no
I love her oh yea
Don't you walk through her words
Got to show some respect
Don't you walk through her words
'Cause you ain't heard her out yet

I don't like cricket
I love it DREADLOCK HOLIDAY
I don't like reggae
I love it DREADLOCK HOLIDAY
Don't like Jamaica
I love it DREADLOCK HOLIDAY

If you want love to stay
Don't give all your secrets away
It's not the fashion
But hold back your passion 

Don't - open your heart, no
Don't - share all your dreams in one night, no
Don't - tell the whole story
Why should you hurry? 

You don't want love to leave
So don't wear your heart on your sleeve
It's not a crime to
Give her some time and 

Don't - drive her away, no
Don't - love isn't built in a day, no
Don't - let it grow stronger
Feed in the hunger 

Hold back your passion 

You're not an open book
So don't let her take just one look
Under the cover
Let her discover 

Don't - stop the surprising, no
Don't - take all the mystery out of it, no
Don't - put out the fire
Kill her desire 

Don't - open your heart, no
Don't - share all your dreams in one night, no
Don't - tell the whole story
Why should you hurry? 

Don't -
Don't -
Don't -
[etc.]
