(Original Key: G)


[Intro]
Em  D  C (x6)


[Verse 1]
      Em                     Am
I was walkin' down the street
       Em                       Am
Concen-tratin' on truckin' right
          Em                     Am
I heard a dark voice beside of me
            Em                        
And I looked round in a state of fright
Am


[Bridge 1]
           Em
I saw four faces one mad
  Am
A brother from the gutter
     Em
They looked me up and down a bit
    Am             Em    D  C
And turned to each other
N.C.
I say


[Chorus 1]
             Em      D  C
I don't like cricket oh no
  Am     Bm  C
I love it
             Em      D  C
I don't like cricket oh no
  Am     Bm  C
I love it


[Break]
          G
Don't you walk thru my words

You got to show some respect

Don't you walk thru my words
                         D   C   Em  D 
'Cause you ain't heard me out yet
C, Em  D  C


[Verse 2]
              Em                      
Well he looked down at my silver chain
Am
             Em                  Am
He said I'll give you one dollar
              Em                  Am
I said You've got to be jokin' man
         Em                    Am
It was a present from me Mother


[Bridge 2]
          Em
He said I like it I want it
     Am
I'll take it off your hands
              Em
And you'll be sorry you crossed me
     Am                            
You'd better understand that you're 
 Em  D  C
a-lone
                Em   D   C
A long way from home
N.C.
And I say


[Chorus 2]

             Em     D  C
I don't like reggae no no
  Am     Bm  C
I love it
             Em     D  C

  Am     Bm  C
I love it


[Break]
          G
Don't you cramp me style

Don't you queer on me pitch

Don't you walk thru my words
                         D/F#   C   Em 
'Cause you ain't heard me out yet
D  C, Em  D  C


[Verse 3]
          Em                       Am
I hurried back to the swimming pool
        Em           Am
Sinkin' pina coladas
          Em                      Am
I heard a dark voice beside me say
          Em                      Am
Would you like something harder


[Bridge 3]
              Em
She said I've got it you want it
   Am
My harvest is the best
           Em
And if you try it you'll like it
   Am                         Em   D   
And wallow in a Dreadlock Holi-day
C
N.C.
And I say


[Chorus 3]
              Em    D  C
Don't like Ja-maica oh no

I love her
              Em    D  C
Don't like Ja-maica oh no
  Am      Bm  C
I love her


[Break]
          G
Don't you walk thru her words

You got to show some respect

Don't you walk thru her words
                          D   C   Em  D
'Cause you ain't heard her out yet
 C, Em  D  C


[Chorus 4]
