Verse 1
(G major) Well each (D major) and every day,
I gotta keep (G major) on moving
So (D major) Jah, (G major) give me oil (D major) inna my lamp,
keep it (G major) burning
Jah give me little oil inna my lamp,
keep (D major) it burning
Jah give me, look (G major) how I lam a lamp,
keep (D major) it burnin'
Jah give me, (G major) look how I lam a lamp,
keep (D major) it burnin'
Jah give me, (G major) look how I lam a lamp,
keep it (D major) burnin'
It's to Jah and only Jah (G major)
who I man is (D major) prayin'
So all conscious people, (G major)
I hope (D major) you are listenin'
Not just listenin' with your (G major) ears
but with your mind meditatin'
(D major) And a vibin' to the (G major) words
that Fatou Bantan is (D major) preachin'
A foolish man will (G major) tell you
cultural lyrics is (D major) boring
I (G major) will leave the punk who's speechless
when I ask him (D major) who he a dealin'
Like salt in a (G major) water,
his brain will (D major) be dissolving
Smoke will come out (G major) of him ears
like an old run (D major) down engine
Like a man struck by (G major) lightning,
he'll wonder (D major) what hit him
I'll cramp and para (G major) lyze him
and then I (D major) will leave him
It don't matter if he's (G major) yellow,
black, white,
brown, (D major) pink or green skin
Whoever fight against (G major) Jah
surely deserves (D major) a beating
So give me a little (G major) oil in my lamp,
keep it (D major) burning
Jah give me a little (G major) oil in my lamp,
keep it (D major) burning
Just give me a little (G major) oil in my lamp,
keep it (D major) burning
Just give me liquor (G major) and I'm a lamp,
keep it (D major) burning
Well the devil is a crook,
(G major) don't (D major) be his next victim
He'll break into your (G major) brain
and check what (D major) you're thinking
If you're dreaming (G major) of gold,
then (D major) gold you'll be wearing
If you're wishing for (G major) money,
then money you'll (D major) be spending
If you're hoping for fun, (G major)
then fun you'll be (D major) having
But remember,
all (G major) good things must come (D major) to an ending
Adam and Eve inna di (G major) garden,
it (D major) came to a sinning
Love between Cain (G major) and Abel,
it came to (D major) a killing
Many good times I've (G major) had,
had to come to an (D major) ending
But let me carry (G major) on,
with what I was (D major) saying
Every time that you (G major) sin,
the devil (D major) is laughing
Every wrong move you (G major) make,
brings you nearer towards (D major) him
You've got your (G major) chance,
while you are (D major) still living
To choose a life of (G major) goodness,
or a life (D major) full of sinning
So when Satan (G major) says,
come to the fiery dungeon
(D major) He's (G major) only a wicked man's soul,
that boy (D major) will be taken
Just give me liquor (G major) and I'm a lamp,
keep (D major) it burnin'
Jah give me liquor and I'm (G major) a lamp,
keep it (D major) burnin'
Just give me liquor and I'm (G major) a lamp,
keep it (D major) burnin'
Just give me liquor and I'm (G major) a lamp,
keep it burnin'
Now all careless children,
I hope you are listenin'
Not just listenin' with your ears
but with your mind concentratin'
(D major) Me well ser (G major) ious,
I hope you don't (D major) think I'm jokin'
If you listen truth (G major) and right
and a study diverse (D major) touchin'
Give thanks and praise in (G major) the night,
also first thing (D major) a mornin'
Try fi squeeze in couple chapter (G major) fi
Bible every even (D major) ing
Watch what (G major) you do,
also mind what (D major) you sayin'
Every day, every hour, every (G major) minute,
every second Jah (D major) is watchin'
That's why me say, (G major) do good,
an (D major) d good will fol (G major) low you, yeah
Just (D major) give me (G major) look up and I'm a lamp,
keep (D major) it burnin'
Jah give me (G major) look up and I'm a lamp,
huh, keep (D major) it burnin'
Just give me look (G major) up and I'm a lamp,
huh, keep (D major) it burnin'
Just give me look (G major) up and I'm a lamp,
keep it burnin'
(D major) I'm burnin', I'm (G major) burnin', I'm burnin' (A minor) (G major)
(A minor) (G major)
(D major) (A minor) (G major) (D major)
(G major) (D major) (G major) (D major)
(G major)
(D major)
(G major) (D major) (G major) (D major)
(G major)

(D major) (G major) (D major) (G major)
(D major) (G major) (D major) (G major)
(D major) (G major)
Thanks watching.
