Lyrics Bob Marley & The Wailers

Bob Marley & The Wailers

Stiff Necked Fools

Stiff necked fools, you think you're cool

To deny me for simplicity

Yes you have gone, for so long

With your love for vanity now

Yes you have got, the wrong interpretation

Mixed up with vain imagination

R: So take JAH Sun, and JAH Moon

And JAH Rain and JAH Stars

And forever yes erase your fantasy, yeah

The lips of the righteous, teach many

But fools die for want of wisdom

The rich man's wealth is in his city

The righteous wealth is in his Holy Place

R: So take JAH Sun...

Destruction of the Poor is in their poverty

Destruction of the soul is vanity, yea

So stiff necked fools, you think you're cool

To deny me for simplicity, yeah, yeah

Yes you have gone, gone for so long

With your love for vanity now

But I don't wanna rule ya

I don't wanna fool ya

I don't wanna school ya

Things you, you might never know about

Yes you have got the wrong interpretation

Mixed up with vain, vain imagination

Stiff necked fools, you think you're cool

To deny me for, Ooh simplicity
