Paroles de 'Bob You Did Yu Job' par Jimmy Cliff

Many things have been said about you,
some false, some true
Not because everyone is saying why I'm saying too
What I have to say needs to be said, because it's true

You gave the people in your song the essence of the truth
Your passage through this life
Was a great big gift to humanity
And I reference you really and truly
Oh Bob Marley Bob yu did yu job,
yow-yow-yow-yow Bob yu did yu job,
yow-yow-yow-yow Bob yu did yu job,
yow-yow-yow-yow Brother Bob yu did yu job,
yoga-yoga-yow-yow

Touch the hearts of so many people, specially the grass-roots
And you made so many disciple while you touch mine too
More than anyone in this century and I can name a few:
More than Beatles and Beach Boys and Elvis Presley and the Rolling Stones
Yes, and even more than mega star Michael Jackson
Bob yu did yu job, yow-yow-yow-yow
Bob yu did yu job, yow-yow-yow-yow
Bob yu did yu job, yow-yow-yow-yow
Brother Bob yu did yu job,
yoga-yoga-yow-yow

Then your spirit all the singers and players of music of today
A higher inspiration might we had in yesterday
You were a saint who never depart from the normal way
Of true reggae, reggae philosophy
Bob yu did yu job, yow-yow-yow-yow
Bob yu did yu job, yow-yow-yow-yow
Bob yu did yu job (a true), yow-yow-yow-yow
Brother Bob yu did yu job (true),
yocka-yocka-yow-yow

Your passage through this life
Was a great big gift (a true) to humanity
And I reference you really and truly Brother Bob Marley
Brother Bob yu did yu job (a true), yoga-yoga-yow-yow
Brother Bob yu did yu job (true), yow-yow-yow-yow
Brother Bob yu did yu job (a true), yoga-yoga-yow-yow
Brother Bob yu did yu job (true)...
