Lyrics
BOB MARLEY (Tribute to the Tuff Gong)
Everywhere we go people say: "Hey! Play Bob Marley!"
We ask them "Which one?" and they say, "Oh, we don't know!"
So to have some fun we wrote a song "Bob Marley"
And every time they scream his name (bob Marley) this is what we play
Ooh ooh ooh ooh - Bob Marley
Ooh ooh ooh ooh - Reggae superstar
Ooh ooh ooh ooh - Bob Marley
Ooh ooh ooh ooh - Rasta superstar
His guitar is still waiting (Can't you hear? Can't you hear?)
Dreadlocks in the air (Can't you see? Can't you see?)
He's jammin' and he's skanking
Natural mystic is everywhere
He said "People let's get together" (One Love)
Unite and you will feel (Irie Irie)
Love is the answer
We gotta have peace and harmony
In a far away land (Jamaica)
There lived a man - Bob Marley
Showed the world the essence of the Rastaman
In a far away land (Jamaica)
This conscious man - Bob Marley
Played his reggae music with a message from the Higher man
Ooh ooh ooh ooh - Bob Marley
Ooh ooh ooh ooh - Reggae superstar
Ooh ooh ooh ooh - Bob Marley
Ooh ooh ooh ooh - Rasta superstar
Bob Marley!
We are here to pass it on
Pass it on, pass it on, pass it on
The message will never die
'Cause every day we keep the music alive
