Keep resting in peace, Robert Nesta Marley! It’s been 35 years since you up and left and your music still has so much spirit, the lyrics so prescient. Prince is up there now. Have you two hooked up yet?
Like I said:
It’s been 35 years since you walked out of that door,
And the pain sure does knock more:
Ooh Bob, ooh Bob, is it feasible?
We wanna know now, for the pain to knock some more.
Ya see, in life we know there’s lots of grief,
But your music was our relief:
Tears in our eyes burn – tears in our eyes burn
While we’re waiting – while we’re waiting for the Jah Man,
See!
We don’t wanna wait in vain for Jah Man;
We don’t wanna wait in vain for Jah Man;
We don’t wanna wait in vain for Jah Man;
We don’t wanna wait in vain for Jah Man;
We don’t wanna wait in vain for Jah Man, oh!
We don’t wanna – We don’t wanna – We don’t wanna – We don’t wanna -We don’t wanna wait in vain.
