Shanty Town Songtext
von Desmond Dekker

007, 007 at ocean eleven
And now rudeboys have a go wail
′Cause them out of jail
Rudeboys cannot fail
'Cause them must get bail

Dem a loot, dem a shoot, dem a wail
A Shanty Town
Dem a loot, dem a shoot, dem a wail
A Shanty Town

Dem rudeboys get a probation
A Shanty Town
And rudeboy bomb up the town
A Shanty Town


007, 007 at ocean eleven
And now rudeboys have a go wail
′Cause them out of jail
Rudeboys cannot fail
'Cause them must get bail

Dem a loot, dem a shoot, dem a wail
A Shanty Town
Dem a loot, dem a shoot, dem a wail
A Shanty Town

Dem rudeboys get a probation
A Shanty Town
And rudeboy bomb up the town
A Shanty Town

Police get taller
A Shanty Town
Soldier get longer
A Shanty Town

Rudeboy a weep and a wail
A Shanty Town
Rudeboy a weep and a wail
A Shanty Town
