Youth Of Eglington - Black Uhuru

The youths of Eglinton

Won’t put down their Remington

The youth of Brixton

They have their 45 Smith and

Wesson pistol pistol

The youth of Utica Avenue

They just can’t keep cool

So much gun shot some

cripple some turn fool

They are responsible for a lot

of children

And they need food

And they want to go to school

I say the youth of Eglington

Won’t put down their Remington

I say the youth of Kingston

Won’t leave their Magnum

pistol pistol

A very thin line to start the crime

Who will be the first to volunteer

You love you love your fuckery

Get up and get yourself together

You hear the words of Jah Jah

coming from the hill top of Dabra Dabra

Keep you strength

The youth of Eglington

Won’t put down their Remington

I say the youth of Brixton

They put down their 45 Smith

and Wesson pistol pistol

Stop and listen

They want you to fight the good fight

But save you strength

For strength of life

The youths in Africa

All a dem a thriller

I say the youth of Eglington

Won’t put down their Remington

The youth of Kingston

Won’t leave their Magnum

pistol pistol

Poor Jill she was a spill

she got hit by a stray shot

The youths of Eglington

Won’t put down their Remington

The youths of Brixton

They put down their 45 Smith

and Wesson pistol pistol
