Bunny Wailer

Wanted Children

Wanted children crying from the

Backbones of their fathers

Wanted children, longing for the

Bossom of their mothers (rep.)

Now didn't JAH create the earth

And to the waters did he give birth

He divided the waters from the land

Rivers for land, and seas for sand

Then said he, let there be fight.

And he made the darkness bright

Greater lights to rule by day

Lesser tights to rule by night.

Nothing or no one can change them

Adjust or even rearrange them

These creations were here from the beginrung

So accept them for what they're worth

For all good thing in life are free

Like liberty for you and for me

As the freedom of a raging storm

Let the little children born

Wanted children, crying from the

Backbones of their fathers

Wanted children, longin for the

Bossom of their mothers (rep).

And so JAH created man

Male and female according to his plan

All creatures both great and small

And in pairs he create them all

To man and woman he gave all dominion

Over all creatures that live on creation

To multiply and replenish the earth

By coming together and so give birth

So who are you to try them, price them and sell them

Who are you to slave them and to

Kill them before them born

Who are you to hunt them down

Run them down and gun them down

Who are you to Judge them and to

Put thern to shame and scorn.

Wanted children, crying from the

Backbone of their fathers

Wanted children longin for the

Bossom of their mothers (rep.)
