Song Lyrics

(There's only one person I want)
(A real Jamaican)

Ooo, dis a the truth, ya
Tuff inna the streets, born soldier
Defend mi owna place fi di yute ya
Demons move fast mi rebuke ya
Ooo, man a solider
Fight fi my life and control ya
Dead before dishonor no come closer
Deal wid di case and cut clear sah

Stand by me, stand by me
Baby, don't leave my side
Even though I know someone watching me
Dem fi know seh man a real Yaadie, ay
Dem fi know seh man a real Yaadie, ay
(There's only one person I want)
(A real Jamaican)

Youth tell you the truth (The truth)
No say anyting me woulda do fi yuh
Oh yeah, bring tings inna mi yaad awah mi do to yuh?
Nah, no respect still me worry and mi screw fi ya
Yo D, remember where we come from
Call me like you want fi dead a England (No, no, no)
Running round town like a mad man
God, your friends just end up in a gang bang

Stand by me, stand by me
Baby, don't leave my side
Even though I know someone watching me
Dem fi know seh man a real Yaadie, ay
Dem fi know seh man a real Yaadie, ay
(There's only one person I want)
(A real Jamaican)

Watch ova me (Watch ova me)
Guide ova me (Guide ova me)
Me a beg you, please stand by me
Watch ova me (Watch ova me)
Guide ova me (Guide ova me)
Me a beg you, please stand by me
Watch over for me, watch over for me, babe

Stand by me, stand by me
Baby, don't leave my side
Even though I know someone watching me
Dem fi know seh man a real Yaadie, ay
Dem fi know seh man a real Yaadie, ay (Oh god, watch ova me baby)
