Nah go at no funeral, cyaan go at dem burial
Nah go at no funeral, cyaan go at dem burial
Dem want I to come at this funeral
Oh, dem want I to come at this burial
Di dreader di battle there (sweeter the victory)
An' man a go bawl (sweeter the love could be)
Nah go at dem funeral, cyaan go at no burial
Nah go at no funeral, cyaan go at dem burial
So, let the dead bury the dead
But let the living man give thanks an' praise instead
I nah go at dem funeral, an' nah go a dem burial
Dem are go laugh if dem see
Lightning come strike dreadlocks in the cemetery
Go 'weh from deh
Nah go at dem funeral, cyaan go at dem burial
Nah go at dem funeral, cyaan go at dem burial
Fi go make that lightning
Come an' catch I in a cemetery, you mussi mad
And make that earthquake
Come an' catch I in a cemetery, an' make that lightning
Oh, come-come
Catch I in a cemetery, you mussi mad
Make that lightning, come an' catch I in a cemetery
Said, mi nah go a funeral, fi go make Jah Jah lightning
Come an' catch I in a cemetery, an' make Jah lightning
Come an' catch I in a cemetery, say mi nah go
Rastaman you cyaan' go
