rev hammer - johnny reggae lyrics

Loading...

you used to see him down leicester square,
with a mixed-up suit and filthy hair.
he played harmonica in limbo,
for his tea and fare
he drank too much, but, i couldn’t care

chorus:
johnny reggae he could not see (x3)
but it never stopped him
smiling at me.

he wore a badge from a paradise isle,
he grinned a lot, he had a toothless smile.
he broke no laws,
or appeared on no files,
and spent his night upon the pavement tiles.

chorus

they say it started with some rookie police,
when a lucky right hand knocked one off his feet.
they dragged him, legless, to the soundproof cell,
where no-one but the dead could hear you yell,
and they gave what they give to the troublesome
n-gg-rs.

now, i hope one night, when there is me and thee,
that we are behind those men in a blind alley.
in the blackened night their eyes don’t see,
who dealt a dose of brutality.

chorus:
for, johnny reggae he could not see (x3)
but that never stopped their brutality.
