Street 66 lyrics with English Translations
The room was dark, dusk howling softly 6 o'clock
Charcoal light, the fine sight was moving black
The sound was music mellow steady flow
And man son mind just mystic
Red, green, red, green, your scene
No man would dance but leap and shake That sharp through feeling right Shape that sound, tumbling down Making movement, ruff enuff
I felt the sting, knew the shock, yeah, Had to do and ride the rock Outta dis rock shall come a greener riddim Even more dread than what the breeze of glory bred
Vibrating violence is our only move Rocking with green rhythm The drought and dry root out
The mighty poet I Roy was on the wire Weston did a skank and each man laugh and feeling irie Dread I street 66, the said man said Any policeman come here will get some righteous, Raasclot licks, yeah mon, whole heapa licks
Hours beat, the scene moving right, when all on a sudden Bam, bam, bam, a knocking 'pon the door Weston, feeling high, replied,
No man would dance but leap and shake That sharp through feeling right Shape that sound, tumbling down Making movement, ruff enuff
I felt the sting, knew the shock, yeah, Had to do and ride the rock Outta dis rock shall come a greener riddim Even more dread than what the breeze of glory bred
Vibrating violence is our only move Rocking with green rhythm The drought and dry root out
The mighty poet I Roy was on the wire Weston did a skank and each man laugh and feeling irie Dread I street 66, the said man said Any policeman come here will get some righteous, Raasclot licks, yeah mon, whole heapa licks
Hours beat, the scene moving right, when all on a sudden Bam, bam, bam, a knocking 'pon the door Weston, feeling high, replied,
