Lyrics

Jamaica

Ready not nice,

Dre skull, Kartel, dance Hall, forever
Me come from Jamaica
Me come from Jamaica
Me come from Jamaica
Me come from Jamaica

Portmore, city, Kingston
City, city Kingston
Thugs in the street
Looking for food fi eat
90 degrees heat, Jamaica still sweet
Gals dem grinding
Pretty ladies whining
Oh Teacha look at me whining,
Look, look, look at me whining

Me come from Jamaica
Me come from Jamaica
Me come from Jamaica
Me come from Jamaica

Police man pushing the herse,
Grandmada going to church
Visitors de tourist mon notice
But ah kingston ah de place weh you fi notice
Home of Teacha

Dre skull, dance hall, forever
Me come from Jamaica
Me come from Jamaica
Me come from Jamaica
Me come from Jamaica

Hahaha, sick dawg
Me haffi go light my spliff now
Duh, awoh
