Chorus
For there is only one way to go
and I can only do the good that I know
Oh yeah for sure oh for sure

Yo and now them come and chat but look from when we here

Repatriate the ghetto youths them from this hemisphere
Well you no bother scorn we true we dutty and tear
True me tent out spread out pun the ground like a spear
