Pass The Dutchie - 12" Version

de Pato Banton

Mama cry Papa cry when them hear them little youth die
Innocent by stander in a drive by shooting
In the middle of the night
That no right! To take an innocent life (2X)

I can remember when were youths
Everyone trying to learn 'bout their roots
Hungry and thirsty to know 'bout the truth
But is like we leave our children destitute

Yes! Nuff black man should confess
Because you know in your heart that you never did your best
You left a long list of children fatherless
And a whole heap of baby mothers in distress

Then you wonder 'bout the youths bad ways
Shocked and amazed how they're wicked nowadays
Every night ina the ghetto, gun shot a blaze
Like BUYAKA! BUYAKA! is the latest craze

Mama cry Papa cry when them hear them little youth die
Innocent by stander in a drive by shooting
In the middle of the night
That no right! To take an innocent life (2X)

Me nar point no finger and me nar call no name
But me tired to hear is the Yardie them to blame
Home grown or from aboard every bad man is the same
And the lot of them bring my black nation to shame

Woe nana woe my generation
We are responsible for the situation
Don't let it happen to the next foundation
Teach the little youths about the Father of Creation

Woe nana woe my generation
We are responsible for the situation
Don't let it happen to the next foundation
Teach the little youths. Lord!

Mama cry Papa cry when them hear them little youth die
Innocent by stander in a drive by shooting
In the middle of the night
That no right! To take an innocent life (2X)

When Mama heard the news she bawl Jesus Christ!
Weeping and wailing till she lose her voice
Me Muslim brother shout "Life for a life!"
And ran out of the house with the knife

But Papa said "Hold on, hear what I have to say
Vengeance is sweet but not the right way
For the wrongs they've done they must have to pay
But two wrongs could never make a right, no way!"

Woe nana woe my generation
We are responsible for the situation
Don't let it happen to the next foundation
Teach the little youths about the Father of Creation

Woe nana woe my generation
We are responsible for the situation
Don't let it happen to the next foundation
Teach the little youths about the Father of Creation

Mama cry Papa cry when them hear them little youth die
Innocent by stander in a drive by shooting
In the middle of the night
That no right! To take an innocent life (2X)
