As I was walking down King Street one day
A youth to his mother I heard say
Mama, Mama, look! the Rastaman!
Him look so red, and him look so dread
Dreadlocks Nazarene, dreadlocks Nazarene
Dreadlocks Nazarene, dreadlocks Nazarene
As the youth man him faith grew stronger
Him no hold on on Jesus no longer
All the image on the wall
The youth man tear it down and mek it fall
Dreadlocks Nazarene, dreadlocks Nazarene
Dreadlocks Nazarene, dreadlocks Nazarene
So you can go on through collection
Say you gonna get saved in resurrection
And now you gone in Jesus' name
You got yourself and no one to blame
Dreadlocks Nazarene, dreadlocks Nazarene
Dreadlocks Nazarene, dreadlocks Nazarene
Dreadlocks Nazarene, dreadlocks Nazarene
Dreadlocks Nazarene, dreadlocks Nazarene
I don't wanna be no sky-gazer
And then you caught me neck with your razor
Said that God is a living man
I wanna try and understand
Dreadlocks Nazarene, dreadlocks Nazarene, Mama
Dreadlocks Nazarene, dreadlocks Nazarene
Dreadlocks Nazarene, dreadlocks Nazarene
Dreadlocks Nazarene, dreadlocks Nazarene
Said they calling Jesus' name
They got themselves no one to blame
And now your father, Satan man
And now you're gone in darkness stand
