Roots, Rock, Reggae Lyrics

Play I some music, this a reggae music (repeat)
Roots Rock Reggae, this a reggae music (repeat)

Hey mister music, sure sounds good to me
I can't refuse it, what to be got to be
Feel like dancing, dance cause we are free
Feel like dancing, come dance with me
Roots Rock Reggae, this a reggae music (repeat)
Play I some music, this a reggae music (repeat)

Play I on the R&B, want all my people to see
We bubbling on the top 100, just like a mighty dread
(repeat)

Roots rock Reggae, this a reggae music (repeat)
Play I some music, this a reggae music (repeat)

and that was created in the u.k during the late 70's as alluded to in punky reggae party. Reggae on Broaddway has a real heavy guitar as well. I love the piano in the beggining of root rock reggae

The part where Bob says "we're bubbling on the Top 100" is his recognition of making the R&B musical charts outside of Jamaica. I think BMW also made some Rock charts, too, with Rastaman Vibration. A lot of people didn't think any band from the Third World would ever make such fame and money, etc.

Bubbling is the term used for that rhythmic sound reggae keyboard players make.
