Chorus:
C Am
Feel it in the one drop

And we'll still find time to rap

The generation gap
C Am
Now feel this drum beat
Dm G
As it beats within
C Am
Playing a rhythm
Dm G
Resisting against the system ooh-wee!
C Am Dm
I know Jah'd never let us down
G
Pull your rights from wrong
C Am Dm
I know Jah'd never let us down
G
Oh no! oh no! oh no!

They made their world so hard
Dm G
Every day we got to keep on fighting

They made their world so hard

Everyday the people are dying, yeeaahh!

For hunger and starvation

But read it in Revelation

Chorus:
Feel it in the one drop
And we'll still find time to rap

I know Jah never let us down
Pull your rights from wrong
I know Jah never let us down
Oh, no! Oh, no! Oh, no!
They made their world so hard
Every day (we got to keep on fighting) every day!
They made their world so hard
Every day (the people are dying) eh!
(Dread, dread, it dread, dread) A what make dem
a-go on so?
(Dread, dread, it dread, oh dread) A what!
(Dread, dread, it dread) A what! (dread)
A what frighten them? (Dread, dread)
A what frighten them? Eh!
Give us the teachings of His Majesty, this is
a stick up!
We no want no devil philosophy, can you hear?
Give us the teachings of His Majesty
For we no want no devil philosophy
We feel it in the one drop
You're lucky, for we'll still got time to rap
And we're making the one stop, let me tell ya
This generation gap
Now feel this drumbeat, tell you what
