[Verse 1]
[C]Right here and now, and gentlemen, I'd like to introduce for you a very soulful brother,
soul brother number one, from
Kingston,
Jamaica way!
Thank you ever so kindly. I'm here with my reggae machine,
and I'm gonna do you some good in the neighborhood like I should.
Hey, wait a minute, I hear a sound.
That sounds like organ.
Let me hear some drums to go with it,
please.
Come on now.
Mm -hmm, that sounds good.
How about some swinging guitar?
Please,
Mr.
Guitars, let me hear [B]you.[Eb]
Ay -yi -yi, [C]baby, that sounds like [C]it.
But let me hear [Eb]some pian[C]o.
You can't sit on the keyboard.
Put your finger on [Em]it.
Come [Eb]on.
Ay, thank [C]you.
But I can[B]'t do it without [Eb]the bass.
[C]Come on, bassy.
Move those fingers.
Let me hear it.
Swing [Eb]it.[E]
Ay -yi -yi, now you're doing your thing.
That sounds [Eb]like the thing.
[F]Guitars, give me [E]them reggae guitar,
[Eb]please.
Aye, aye, [E]aye.
Man, ain't them sounds [Eb]pretty?
It's just fabulous.
[E]I can't stand to listen to that thing.
[Eb]Throwin' me way out
of my mind.
Now, come [E]on now, blow it.
[Eb]Now, shake it, fellas, shake it well.
And then [C]start.
Aye, that's it.

[B]You know I wonder [C]why the grass is green
[B]and why the wind is never seen
Who taught the [C]birds to build their nest

And when the moon is not quite round, tell me,
where can the missing bits be found
It can be found in the
