Lyrics:

Watch out, they will betray you,
So I won't have them where I dwell
Yes, they will want to fool dread
But dreadlock is dreader tham dem

Ye evil men of Satan why do you try to provoke I
Do you hear when the lion is sleeping, never you try to wake him, wake him
Backbiters, where will you run to when natty dread a come
You would wish that day you'd never been born

Dreadlocks I tell you that
I man can sight things from afar.
So you can take a tip from I
A wise head keep better still tongue
And silent river, you know, run deep

He who have ears will hear.
He who have eyes will see.
He who have tongue will tell
What you sow is what you shalI reap, yeah
Backbiters, where will you run to when natty dread a come
You would wish that day, you'd never been born

Dreadlocks I tell you that
Watch out, they will betray you,
So I won't have them where I dwell
Yes, they will want to fool dread
And dreadlock is dreader tham dem

Weak hearts, where will you run to when natty dread a come
You would wish that day, you'd never been born

Dreadlocks I tell you that
Watch out, they will betray you,
So I won't have them where I dwell
Yes, they will want to fool dread
And dreadlock is dreader tham dem......
