Sizzla
In Jamaica
[Intro]
Oh wo woah woah
Oh woah woah
Oh woah woah
See dem a' fight fi rule di country
A' truths and rights, rule di country
See dem a' fight rule di county
A' truths and rights

[Chorus]
T'ings run different in Jamaica
Black people live decent in Jamaica
A' bare superstar come from Jamaica
Badmind can fall far from Jamaica
T'ings run different in Jamaica
Black people live decent in Jamaica
Bare superstars come from Jamaica
Badmind people stand far from Jamaica

[Verse 1]
Yo, no wrong t'ing no gwarn
A' strong 'tings a' gwarn
Black man t'ings a' gwarn
Look how long tings a' gwarn
Black woman yutes a' born
Di yutes dem have land
Big up di Rastaman dem 'pon di farm
Get a book and read and survive
Nuh deh pon nuh side
Every yute doing music
Every yute get a ride
Girls dem educated and di girls dem full a' pride
Emperor Selassie a' we guide
[Chorus]
T'ings run different in Jamaica
Poor people fi live decent in Jamaica
Bare superstars come from Jamaica
Badmind people stand far from Jamaica
T'ings run different in Jamaica
Black people live decent in Jamaica
Bare superstars come from Jamaica
Wicked people stand far, far from Jamaica

[Verse 2]
Respect and [?]
Mi rise di banners
For di young for di old
For the dad and mamas
Ghetto yute as long as to di elders yuh have manners
Rastafari make yuh as strong as..
Anytime wid deh mouth spread di love anywhere 'bout
[?]
And [?]
When di yutes dem touch out
Violence cut out
Mi nuh see nuh girls a' bruk out

[Outro]
T'ings run different in Jamaica
Black people live decent in Jamaica
Bare superstars come from Jamaica
Babylon stand far from Jamaica
T'ings run different in Jamaica
Black people live decent in Jamaica
Bare superstars come from Jamaica
Badmind people stand far from Jamaica
