Wow there, oh Lord
Wow these words, these words of Thy mouth
Wow there, wow these words, yes, now
I lift my head unto the almighty God
He showed me what I had he said
Stand firm and beat Thy drums
They prepare all Thy children of Israel
Then wait for Thy coming day
So I beat the kette drum
br/>And make it sound in Jerusalem
And echo round in Jordan-dan-dan
Beat the kette drum and make it sound in Bethlehem
Echo up in Zion
So man I beat the kette, kette
Beat the kette drum cause man I'm not streggae, streggae
From the kette drum you get the reggae, reggae
People come and all say , say, say, say
Never knew there were shocking vibes there, there, there, there
Africans sing alot of yelleh, yelleh
Beat the kette drum and make way
Wow, nigh, nigh, Africans are coming and they are
Wow, nigh, nigh, that's why I sing
Beat the kette drum and make it sound in a Jerusalem
An echo back in a Jordan-dan-dan
Beat the kette drum make it sound in a Bethlehem
An echo back in a Zion-on-on
So Bingi Man beat the kette drum, knock the kette drum
Lick the kette drum Congo Man is coming down
Kick the kette drum, knock the kette drum
Lick the kette drum, Guad Man is coming
Marcus Garvey was a prophet but he still this the king
Call the king all a coward, and fly a flag against him
Marcus Garvey face death, I could a judgment take him
But Selassie done did bless him
But 1966 when the king came to visit
Old heap of kette drums beat a rastaman beat it
Welve tribe from Israel, Gold Men starred it
Watch the boy dread come, come join it
Well house a dread a come
Beat the kettle drum, knock the kettle drum
Beat the kettle drum, Many men come down
Lick the kettle drum, bust the kettle drum
Knock the kette drum, Congo Man is coming down
To beat the kette drum and make it sound in a Jerusalem
An echo up in a Jordan-dan-dan
Kick the kette drum and making it sound in a Bethlehem
They echo up in a Zion, one more time
Beat the kette drum and make it sound in a Jerusalem
Echo back round a Jordan-dan -than
Lick the kette drum and make it sound in a Bethlehem
Woh Lord, Lord, woh nigh
Woh, all sons of Selassie I'm talking
If you love reggae music, let the kette drum talk
Indian beats the kette drum when there is a war
Ethiopian answers back from far
Now Jamaicans beat the kette and dance
People all a jump an prance but hear me sing
Beat the kette drum, knock the kette drum
Gimmi the kette drum till morning come down
Lick the kette drum, knock the kette drum
Gimmi the kette drums till a morning comes
I lift my head unto the almighty God
He showed me what I had he said
Stand firm and beat Thy drums
An prepare all Thy children of Israel
Then wait for Thy coming day
So I beat the kette drum
And let it sound in a Jerusalem
And echo round a Jordon-dan-dan
Beat the kette drum and make it sound in a Bethlehem
Echo up in a Zion
I lift my head unto the almighty God
He showed me what I had he said
Stand firm and beat Thy drums
They prepared all Thy children of Israel
Then waited for Thy coming day
So I beat the kette drum
And made it sound in a Jerusalem
And echo round a Jordon-dan-dan
Beat the kette drum and make it sound in a Bethlehem
Echo up in a Zion
Beat the kette drum, bust the kette drum
Lick the kette drum till a morning come down
Beat the kette drum, knock the kette drum
Beat the kette drum till a morning, woh Lord
Beat the kette drum and make it sound in a Jerusalem
An echo back round a Jordan-dan-dan
Beat the kette drum and make it sound in a Bethlehem
Have a good day
