Lyrics:

Natty dread will never run away, no, no, no
Natty dread will never run away
Marcus Garvey, prophesy say, oh yeah
Man a go find him back against the wall, yeah
It a go bitter when the right times comes
Lord, some a go charge fe treason
When the right time come, yeah, some a go charge fe arson
When the right time come, lord, some a go charge fe murder
When the law man come, some a go run till dem tumble down
When the Parson come, him a go quote de scripture
Swallow field a go be in a, the battle field, yeah, yeah
Natty dread will never run away, no, no, no
Natty dread will never run away, no my brethen
Dis ya a prophecy, hold dem Marcus
Dis ya a prophecy, hold dem Marcus

Swallow field a go be in a de battlefield, yeah, yeah
Natty dread will never run away, no, no, no
Natty dread will never run away, no my brethen
Dis ya a prophecy, dis ya prophecy
When the right time come, some a go charge fe treason
When the right time come, some a go charge fe arson
When the right time come, Lord, some a go fe murder
When the law man come, some a go run till dem tumble down
When the parson come, him a go quote de scripture
Swallow field a go be in a, yeah, battlefield, yeah, yeah
Natty dread will never run away, no, no, no
