Linton Kwesi Johnson - Want Fi Goh Rave lyrics



I woz

when a hear a lickle yout-man say

him seh:
yÂ'u noh si mi situation
mi donÂ't have noh accamadaeshan

mi seh mi life got no meaninÂ'
ah jusÂ' livinÂ' widout feelinÂ'

still
mi haffi mek a raze
kaw mi come af age
an mi want fi goh rave

I woz
waakin doun di road
annadah day
wÂ'en ah hear annadah yout-man say

him seh:
mi naw wok fi noh pittance
mi naw draw dem assistance
mi use to run a lickle rackit
but wha, di police dem di stap it
an ah had woz to hap it

still
mi haffi mek a raze
kaw mi come af age
an mi want fi goh rave

I woz waakin doun di road
yet annadah day
wÂ'en ah hear annadah yout-man say

him seh:
mi haffi pick a packit
tek a wallit fram a jackit
mi haffi dhu it real crabit
anÂ' if a lackit mi haffi pap it
anÂ' if a safe mi haffi crack it
ar chap it wid mi hatchit
but
mi haffi mek a raze
kaw mi come af age
an mi want fi goh rave
