Put your lighters in the air
Lighters in the air
If you know your heart clean like a whistle

Heart clean like a little whistle
Me and me bredda dem good
Family me deal wid
Me bun yes man
Ina interview them ask nuff question
Dem want know weh me born
And weh me come from

Dehso me born right on di trainline
Ten and a half say chronixx a game time
And if a bread and a half
Me say me will share mine with them
Share it like a good news
'Cause me love me family like a cook food
Late ina hours a night we cook food
Every plate affi full up a rice and good stew
So let me see some lighters
From you know say you feel alright
Me say love defeat all evil
Dah song yah affi clean heart people
