Drop it in a style, drop it in a fashion
Every way I go, I rocks the reggae man
Let me reggae music and chant on Babylon

When the music faded if I'm in a state of shock
The big, big music from the little rock

Oh, oh, oh, yeah

Hey

You take them high, you take them low
You take them any place they wanna go
