 Drape up di dreadlocks and then him handcuff him
 And carry him down a station and babylon trim him
 Fling him inna cell them would a kill him with beating
 Di dread inna di cell with a wholeheap a shouting
 A bad bwoy seh dreadlocks stop di shouting
 And would a kill di natty dreadlocks with beating hear di dread
 Selassie is not sleeping til I and I must left out ya so a morning
 A bad bwoy seh dreadlocks nuh badda seh nothing
 Or else we gwaan give you another piece a beating
 A bad bwoy use a jail bucket and duck him
 Hold di bucket by di handle and then him dust him
 Di dread look away and them start to rush him
 Them tek him out di cell and carry him go bathe him
 And put him back and give dinner inna di evening
 Then give di dread pork, banana and dumpling hear di dread
 A strict lighter stew I man eating
 Di first day pass and hungry start to kill him hear di dread
 Selassie you son calling, jah you merciful and forgiving

 But don't badda see if I man eat di salt thing
