《August Town》歌词

[00:00:00] August Town - Duane Stephenson

[00:00:06] Na Na Na Naaa Na Na Woah oh Woahh

[00:00:13] Na Na Na Naaa Na Na

[00:00:18] A word from the wise

[00:00:19] Don't try to make life on your own

[00:00:24] Remember that jah jah's by your side

[00:00:30] For i was a soul who lost

[00:00:34] And my life was in dismay

[00:00:38] For amongst evil forces in which i played

[00:00:45] Guns and ammunition

[00:00:48] Were my chosen way of life

[00:00:52] With God fearin people i choose to strife

[00:00:57] For all of the lives that are taken

[00:01:01] They can never be replaced

[00:01:05] But still jah jah chose to remember my face

[00:01:11] Though i never lived like he wanted

[00:01:15] I'm still mindful of what he taught me

[00:01:18] So now i beg and plea

[00:01:20] I'm on my bended knees

[00:01:22] God father u rescue me

[00:01:24] And i've got the scars to show

[00:01:28] I barely made it along life's road

[00:01:32] Cause when my life got dark he was the only spark

[00:01:35] He was the light at the end of the road

[00:01:40] When i was young boy

[00:01:42] Growin up in august town

[00:01:46] We ate from the same pot

[00:01:49] We were idlings all around

[00:01:53] From corner to colour and corner

[00:01:57] From rockers to jungle kentyre

[00:02:00] Rising to dreadhieghts and river all around

[00:02:06] And then the footbal ground became my battlefield

[00:02:09] And my life seems so surreal

[00:02:14] People were fallin all around

[00:02:17] But jah helped me to stand my ground

[00:02:19] Only Jah Only Jah

[00:02:23] Coud've Helped me to stand my ground

[00:02:25] Though i never lived like he wanted

[00:02:29] I'm still mindful of what he taught me

[00:02:33] So now i beg and plea

[00:02:34] I'm on my bended knees

[00:02:36] God father u rescue me

[00:02:39] And i've got the scars to show

[00:02:43] I barely made it along life's road

[00:02:46] Cause when my life got dark he was the only spark

[00:02:50] He was the light at the end of the road

[00:02:55] Never lived to please him

[00:02:58] I never lived like i should

[00:03:01] Oh father you rescue me

[00:03:08] Oh yeah oh yeah

[00:03:15] I've lived and I've learnt

[00:03:17] I've made mistakes along the way

[00:03:21] Now i beg for forgiveness

[00:03:24] Each day as i try to pray

[00:03:28] So take it from me son

[00:03:31] You can change the world today

[00:03:35] And i'm livin proof

[00:03:37] Livin proof that crime doesn't pay

[00:03:40] Though i never lived like he wanted

[00:03:44] I'm still mindful of what he taught me

[00:03:47] So now i beg and plea

[00:03:49] I'm on my bended knees

[00:05:12] (No I never lived)
