D.U.B.
UB40

When me reach me yard me got one thing on me mind,

To hold me little woman and fe make her feel irie.

Be play album, dub plate, and forty-five

For dat's the kind of riddim that keeps me alive.

Me turn on fe me radio some a chat 'bout dat

But I know more than D.J. so I nah play you dat.



Chorus



Me tek a 'D' and a 'U' an' a 'B' - not 'E'

That thing there is special to me.

Me listen in the morning, also in the night

For dat form of music is out-a-sight.

The newest form of music is easy to see

It start with a 'D' and end with a 'B'

Dub in a de morning and dub in a de night

Mek the whole neighbourhood feel alright,

feel alright



When me reach me yard me got one thing on me mind,

To hold me little woman and fe mek her feel irie.

When me reach me yard me got one thing on me mind,

To hold me little woman and fe mek her feel irie.





Chorus



Rock in a de dance, me seh fe give dub a chance,

Rock in de blues, you know you jus' can't lose.

A dub me a defend, on dub i can depend

Check out dis yah music and run tell yo' friend.

We don't want rock 'n' roll and we got enough soul,

We don't want rock 'n' roll and we got enough soul.

Bass is beutiful if it's clean,

But dis yah dub music, man it well mean.

No bother follow friend and ignore dub again.

It's simple, but effective, can't you see?

A lot of people catch on in 'eighty-three.

Now is 'eighty-four and you must know the score,

Anything me chat, you know the people bawl 'more.'

Me jump 'pon de graphics, don't get vex'

All me have a total concept to make you feel Irie.

To make you feel Irie.
