Gentleman Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When Jah is at the ship
We smile at the storm

Life hard and dis ya road it might be ruggy
But Jah would never send you there from you nuh ready no
Listen to his voice and hold on steady
We movin' on and on
[Chorus: x2]
After a storm there must be a calm
You shoulda never go resign
Remember seh Jah love already there before you born
His love is so pure and devine

Just keep that smile up on your face make it an easy day
Never let dem get you down cause you will make it anyway
With Jah love ina your heart I'm sure you will never go astray
And while the sunshine you got to make hay
Jah Jah a the water to my root the only truth
Me nuh go stop work and try until me reap the fruit
And as long as there is no justice man hafi go revolute
Just tell the children the truth

[Chorus: x2]

Box and kick me and threat me like a toy
Try your very best to take away me joy
Yuh nah go see me ina babylon employ
But i have know jah love from ever since i was a boy
Galong and give life a try
Stop your misery and whipe this tears out of your eyes
We see the reason in the sky
Come make we put a fire pon the peagon cause them hafi get no bligh

[Chorus: x2]

Life hard and dis ya road it might be ruggy
But Jah would never send you there from you nuh ready no
Listen to his voice and hold on steady
We movin' on and on





[Chorus: x2]
