BOB MARLEY - Ambush In The Night lyrics

rate me

(Ooh-wee, ooh-wee, ooh-wa!)

See them fighting for power (ooh-wee, ooh-wee, ooh-wa!),

But they know not the hour (ooh-wee, ooh-wee, ooh-wa!),;

So they bribing with their guns, spare-parts and money,

Trying to belittle our

Integrity now.

They say what we know

Is just what they teach us;

And we're so ignorant

'Cause every time they can reach us (shoobe, doo-wa)

Through political strategy (shoo-be, doo-wa);

They keep us hungry (shoobe, doo-wa),

And when you gonna get some food (shoobe, doo-wa),

Your brother got to be your enemy, we-e-ell!

Ambush in the night,

All guns aiming at me;

Ambush in the night,

They opened fire on me now.

Ambush in the night,

Protected by His Majesty.

Ooh-wee, ooh-wee. Ooh-wa-ooh!

(Ooh-wee) Ooh-wee, ooh-wee (ooh-wa), Ooh-wa!

Ooh-wee, ooh-wee, ooh wa-ooh!

Ooh-wee, ooh-wee, ooh wa-ah!

Well, what we know

Is not what they tell us;

We're not ignorant, I mean it,

And they just cannot touch us;

Through the powers of the Most-I (shoobe, doo-wa),

We keep on surfacin' (shoobe, doo-wa);

Thru the powers of the Most-I (shoobe, doo-wa),

We keep on survivin'.

Yeah, this ambush in the night

Planned by society;

Ambush in the night;

They tryin' to conquer me;

Ambush in the night

Anyt'ing money can bring;

Ambush in the night

Planned by society;

Ambush in the night [fadeout]
