《Roots Man Time (1991 Digital Remaster)》歌词

[00:03:22] Roots man - i-roy

[00:03:22] (chorus x5)

[00:03:22] I'm inna

[00:03:22] (verse one)

[00:03:22] There were trendy wannabes staring in my face

[00:03:22] As i stepped to the place i could taste eclair

[00:03:22] Tall head, small head, enough shape to hair

[00:03:22] Swinging out blabber with the coin to spare

[00:03:22] Me myself, i only got five quid to spend and

[00:03:22] Once i've broken this note my pockets on a bend

[00:03:22] Supping on a brew so my vibe gets stirred

[00:03:22] Feeling kind of brave as my vision is blurred

[00:03:22] Skeets in the place, they blow my mind

[00:03:22] I rehearse my approach and i bides my time

[00:03:22] Second thoughts of last one, these stress my nights

[00:03:22] So i was just content with them sights

[00:03:22] Were me and my jack-joan, alone getting down

[00:03:22] Freaking to the sound as the bass spins around

[00:03:22] I'm inna...

[00:03:22] (chorus x4)

[00:03:22] I'm inna

[00:03:22] (verse two)

[00:03:22] Clutching at the bar side, taking in the view

[00:03:22] Press luck, trying to scrounge me a next pint of brew

[00:03:22] Find a relevant spot, see i know nobody

[00:03:22] So i assume the role of some tender somebody

[00:03:22] To attract the attention of some cat with some doe

[00:03:22] Be it jane or flo', i'm slick-quick, got flow

[00:03:22] Looking down at my feet, 'tender' written cross my face

[00:03:22] Hoping some skee aids my case

[00:03:22] Twenty minutes pass and i gets no joy

[00:03:22] I bring storm-dinner gear 'fore my plan deployed

[00:03:22] It was a skee behind the bar, almost dark as me

[00:03:22] Needed a drink so her dream lover had to be me

[00:03:22] I said 'honey, i love the way you work that square

[00:03:22] I know you's a ten and you got nice hair'

[00:03:22] I blew she two kisses, two tries and i misses

[00:03:22] Third time lucky, i'm hitting the target

[00:03:22] She's warming to my vibe, looking deep into my eyes

[00:03:22] I'm spewing out lies but she's none the wiser:

[00:03:22] 'i can't find my bredren with my twenty pound note

[00:03:22] I'm feeling kind of hoarse in the throat?'

[00:03:22] She steps to the brew tap, pumps me a brew

[00:03:22] I said 'hon, i really don't expect this of you'

[00:03:22] Pushed the brew to my hand and i grips it tight

[00:03:22] Turns her back and i slips out of sight

[00:03:22] I'm inna...

[00:03:22] (chorus x4)

[00:03:22] (verse three)

[00:03:22] Back in the midst of them sweaty boogie folks

[00:03:22] A cat comes up and tries to sell me some smoke

[00:03:22] 'what you got, w**d or hash?' he said 'hash'

[00:03:22] 'i don't smoke that but i'll take a quick blast'

[00:03:22] It was a potent cocktail, this hash and brew

[00:03:22] I flips, acting like i'm not known to do

[00:03:22] Strips down to my waist, i was feeling hot

[00:03:22] Getting wild sensations from my head to my

[00:03:22] In a drunken stupour, sweating on this skeet

[00:03:22] Company of us cats, they didn't want to keep

[00:03:22] In came my bartending friend and two bouncers

[00:03:22] Accusing me of theft, lord knows i should've left

[00:03:22] But this buzz in me was like grinning up my jaw

[00:03:22] Before i knew shite i were flat 'pon the floor

[00:03:22] Inna, man...

[00:03:22] (chorus x8)
