Feeling out, feeling down:
|
This feeling wouldn't leave me alone.
|
Then up came-a one that said (hey, Dread):
|
"Hey, Dread, fly, Natty Dread, and smile!"
|
|
You're in Jamaica: C'mon and smile!
|
(In Jamaica, y'all) Get it together, y'all!
|
(In Jamaica) Get it together, now!
|
In Jamaica, y'all.
|
|
Soulful town, soulful people:
|
Said, I see you're having fun,
|
Dancin' to the reggae rhythm,
|
Oh, island in the sun:
|
Oh, smile!
|
|
(In Jamaica) C'mon and smile!
|
(In Jamaica, y'all) Get it together, right now!
|
(In Jamaica) Get it together, children!
|
(In Jamaica, y'all)
|
|
We're gonna help our people, help them right;
|
Oh, Lord, help us tonight!
|
Cast away that evil spell;
|
Throw some water in the well,
|
And smile!
|
|
(In Jamaica) C'mon and smile!
|
(In Jamaica, y'all) Get things together, right now!
|
(In Jamaica) Get it together, right now!
|
(In Jamaica, y'all)
|
|
Riddim wise (wise),
|
Dub-a wise (wise),
|
And other wise (wise)
|
Can't criticize (-cize) our smile.
|
|
(In Jamaica) You're gonna smile!
|
(In Jamaica, y'all) Get it together, right now!
|
(In Jamaica) Get things together, right yow!
|
(In Jamaica, y'all)
|
|
Help my people, help them right!
|
O Lord, help us tonight!
|
Cast away evil spell;
|
Throw some water in the well,
|
And smile!
|
|
(In Jamaica) You're gonna smile!
|
(In Jamaica, y'all) Get it together, children!
|
(In Jamaica) Get things together, right yow!
|
(In Jamaica, y'all)
|
|
Soulful town, soulful people,
|
Said, I know, I know that you're having fun!
