I had a vision last night That I was walking on a street of pure gold This street that I saw Is where I and I should have been So why don't we stand up and fight for our rights You know it's true
Dreadlocks the time is now Stand up fight for your rights Or you ain't gonna get your culture man Roots natty, don't give up oh no
If I am wrong, be not afraid to say so Is there any difference between the black and white? We are all of one skin - same blood, same soul But there are some who think dreadlocks don't count You know it's true
Dreadlocks the time is now Stand up fight for your rights Or you ain't gonna get your culture man Roots natty, don't give up oh no A natty dread
Dreadlocks the time is now, now and now Stand up fight for your rights Or you ain't gonna get your culture man Roots natty, don't give up oh no A natty dread
Dreadlocks the time is now, now and now Stand up fight for your rights Or you ain't gonna get your culture man Roots natty, don't give up oh no Oh don't you give up no
