about

We're dying to meet him. A beautiful song that reveres the late great Bob Marley.

lyrics

It’s late
Everything is closed in town
Except for the local bar
Where the local people go slowly drown

Their music marks their territory
We hear it from far away
It’s loud

Only rock-and-rollers
Reggae, Blues
Disco, Dance
And House Music lovers allowed

We know the place
Even though we’ve never been
We enter. It’s dark inside
Stage lights, our only guide

A man dressed like a pauper
Takes one look at us
And introduces himself proper
His name is Robert Nesta Marley

Mister Marley looks us
Straight in the eye,
Like he knows us.

We smell the flowers people bring
Ganja weed on their breath
And something else more sobering [x 2]

We know the place
Even though we’ve never been
We enter. It’s dark inside
Stage lights, our only guide

Then off he goes, Robert
Up on the stage, Robert
Unto the light, Robert
Looks like a sage

“When I ask you to dance”
“Be ready to sweat,” he says.

“You got no shoes?
“That’s no excuse
“What’s a little blood on the dance floor?” [x2]

We’re gonna die tomorrow
What’s a little blood on the dance floor? [x4]

Then off he goes, again
And we follow, again
We’re now ordained in the ministry
Of no tomorrow

Then off he goes
And we follow
We’re now ordained in the ministry
Of no tomorrow

We know the place
Even though we’ve never been
We enter. It’s dark inside
Stage lights, our only guide

Our only guide
Our only guide
Our only guide
