Lyrics:

Dont take natty dread
Dont take natty dread
For a puppy show
For a puppy show
Dont take natty dread
Dont take natty dread
For a puppy show

Natty dread be up right now
Natty dread stand up right now
Dont stand in the ghetto
And say you'll suffer
Just be up right now
And wear your locks now for

Moises was a great man
The greatest leader ever trod this land
Lead jah jah children out of Babylon
And he, he was a natty dread

Natty dread be up right now
Nyah man stand up right now
Dont stand in the ghetto
And say you'll suffer
Just be up right now
And wear your locks now 'cause

Solomon was a wise man
The wisest man ever trod this land
He got wisdom knowledge understanding from Jah
He was a natty dread

Natty dread be up right now
Nyah man stand up right now
Dont stand in the ghetto
And say you'll suffer
Just be up right now
And wear your locks now

Dont take natty
For a puppy show

Natty dread be up right now
Nyah man stand up right now
Dont stand in the ghetto
And say you'll suffer
Just be up right now
And wear your locks now for

Samson was a strong man
The strongest man ever trod this land
Beat down Babylon with a jawbone of an ass
And he, he was a natty dread

Natty dread be up right now
Nyah man stand up right now
Dont stand in the ghetto
And say you'll suffer
Just be up right now
