Bob Marley, "The King"

Deito-me sobre uma cama que ao som deste Rei me parece de sonho… Oiço atentamente cada nota da sua desafinadamente afinada voz e sinto-me viva.

Como pode tal Homem tocar de tal maneira os nossos corações. Sou tentada a levantar-me, preciso de dançar, não o fazer seria uma ofensa.

Caution

Wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo.

Wo-wo-wo-wo, wo-wo-wo-wo.

Here I am walkin' down the street (Walkin', walkin', walkin', walkin',walkin', walkin', walkin', walkin', walkin',walkin',walkin',

walkin')

And the children: everything is so sweet.

(Wo-wo-wo sweet! Wo-wo-wo sweet!)

I'm doin' my best and I'm doin' it slow,

But there is just one thing I would like you to know.

Ooh, when you wet, it's slippery, yeah. Uh!

When it damp, it crampin'!

If it's slidin', you'll tumble down,

Won't want you on the ground.

Oh-oh-oh! Caution: the road is wet;

Black soul is black as jet. Did you hear me?

Caution: the road is hot;

Still you got to do better than that!'Cause when you wet,

it's slippery, yeah.

It's slippery, yeah!When it damp, it crampin'!

When it damp, it crampin'!If it slidin' up and down-a,

Don't want you on the ground. Brother!

Hit me from the top,

You crazy muthafunkin'!

Hit me from the top,

You crazy muthafunkin'!

Hit me from the top,

Crazy muthafunkin'! Eh!

When you wet, it's slippery, yeah. Uh!

When it damp, it crampin!

If you slidin', you're tumblin' down,

Don't want you on the ground! Don't, don't!

Caution: the road is wet;

Black soul is black as jet. Black soul!

Caution: the road is hot;

Yeah, you got to do better than that!
