Artist: Bob Marley Album: Oakland California '79 (2001) Title: Rebel Music (3 O'clock Roadblock)
Lyrics Rebel Music (3 O'clock Roadblock)(Do do do do-do do do! Do do do do-do do do! I rebel music; I rebel music.) Why can't we roam (oh-oh-oh-oh) this open country? (open country) Oh, why can't we be what we wanna be? (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) We want to be free. (wanna be free)
3 o'clock roadblock - curfew, And I've got to throw away - Yes, I've got to throw away - A yes-a, but I've got to throw away My little herb stalk!
I (rebel music) - yeah, I'm tellin' you! - (I) I rebel music (rebel music). Oh-ooh!
Take my soul (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) and suss - and suss me out (suss me out). Oh-ooh! Check my life (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh), if I am in doubt (I'm in doubt); I'm tellin': 3 o'clock roadblock - roadblock - roadblock, And "Hey, Mr. Cop! Ain't got no - (hey) hey! (hey, Mr Cop) - (What ya sayin' down there?) - (hey) hey! (hey, Mr Cop) - Ain't got no birth certificate on me now."
[Instrumental break]
(I rebel music) (I rebel music) (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) (open country) (oh-oh-oh)
(Do do do!) I (rebel music) - yeah, I'm tellin' you! - (I) I rebel music (rebel music).
Oh-ooh! Take my soul (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) and suss - and suss me out (suss me out). Oh-ooh! Check my life (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh), if I am in doubt (I'm in doubt); I'm tellin': 3 o'clock roadblock - roadblock - roadblock, And "Hey, Mr. Cop! Ain't got no - (hey) hey! (hey, Mr Cop) - (What ya sayin' down there?) - (hey) hey! (hey, Mr Cop) - Ain't got no birth certificate on me now." |
