Dready got a job to do

And he's got to fulfill that mission

To see his hurt is their

Greatest ambition

But we'll survive

In this world of competition

'Cause no matter what they do

Natty keep on comin thru

And no matter what they say

Natty de deh every day



Natty Dread rides again

Thru the mystics of tomorrow

Natty Dread rides again

Having no fear, having no sorrow



All and all you see a Gwan

Is to fight against Rastaman

So they build their world

In great confusion

To force on us the devil's illusion

But the stone that the builder refuse

Shall be the head cornerstone

And no matter what games they play

There is something they could never take away

Something they could never take away

It's the fire, it's the fire, fire

Burning down everything

Feel that fire, fire, the fire, the fire

Only the birds have wings

No time to be deceived

You should know and not believe

Jah says this judgement

Could never be with water

So no water could put out this fire

This this fire, this this fire

This this fire ride Natty ride

Go deh dready, go deh dready, go de



Now the fire is burning

Out of control panic in the city

Wicked weeping for their gold

Everywhere the fire is burning

Destroying and melting their gold

Destroying and waisting their souls



Ride Natty ride

Go deh dready, go deh dready

Go deh dready go de



Now the people gather on the beach

And the leader try to make a speach

But Dread again tell them it's too late

Fire is burning

Man pull your own weight

Fire is burning

Man pull your own weight

Natty dread rides again

Go deh Dready, go deh Dready, go deh

Oh ride Natty ride

Natty dread rides again

Go deh Dready, go deh, go deh Dready, go deh

Riding thru the storm

And we riding thru the calm

Go deh, go deh

We riding thru the thick

We riding thru the thin

Ride Natty, ride Natty
