What was hidden from the wise and foolish
Shall reveal to the babe and suckling
What was hidden from the wise and foolish
Shall reveal to the babe and suckling
Tell me, tell me
What about the half that′s never been told?
Tell me, tell me
What about the half that's never been told?


Jah Jah know, Jah Jah know
So, I an′ I an' I will have to know
Jah Jah know, Jah Jah know
So, I an' I an′ I will have to know
Dread, dread, dreader dread
Dread, dread, dreader dread
Rastafari, Rastafari
Dread, dread, dreader dread
Dread, dread, dreader dread
Rastafari, Rastafari

Every day, man an′ woman
Seem to be getting more civilized
Every day, little children
Gather together more experience
Say, one day, yes, one day
It shall reveal to I an' I

′Cause Jah Jah know, Jah Jah know
So, I an' I an′ I will have to know
Jah Jah know, Jah Jah know
So, I an' I an′ I will have to know
Dread, dread, dreader dread
Dread, dread, dreader dread
Rastafari, Rastafari
Dread, dread, dreader dread
Dread, dread, dreader dread
Rastafari, Rastafari

Dread, dread, dreader dread
Dread, dread, dreader dread
