Long Beach Dub All Stars Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You have to listen to DJ's from the old age(days)
No matter where you're from this music's gonna play
Might be on your soundcrash on every Friday.
You got echo minot, no lazy bodies
So listen what your DJ plays
It's major worries, and his little rosie
Admiral Bailey and his big Belly
King Kong sings a song called Trouble Again
Josie wales says no wrong free call me
Wayne Smith, Peter Metro, and Charlie Chaplain
Early be, Coca Tea, Brigadier Jerry, Tiger, Papa Son, and mister Wilton Ire
Mad Cobra sings flex it's time to have sex
Tristian palma and entertainment
Seen yellow man's maze, on blueberry hilL

mega bonton and some bouyaa for you.
You have to listen to DJ's from all the old age
No matter where you're from this music's gonna play

might be on your radio on every Sunday.
So listen what your DJ plays. (2x)
You-ROY will be gone by the end of the day
