 ( )
 Dready got a job to do
 And he's got to fulfill that mission
 To see his hurt is their
 Greatest ambition
 But we will survive
 In this world of competition
 'Cause no matter what they do
 Natty keep on coming thru
 And no matter what they say
 Natty de deh every day
 ( )
 Natty dread rides again
 Thru the mystics of tomorrow
 Natty dread rides again
 Having no fear, having no sorrow
All  and all you can see  a gwan
Is  to fight against the  Rastaman
So  they build their world
 In great confusion
To  force us in the devil's illusion
But  the stone that the builder  refuse
Shall  be the head cornerstone
And  no matter what games  they play
There  is something they could
 Never take away
Something  they could never take away
And  it's the fire,  it's the fire, fire
Burning  down everything
Feel  the fire, fire, the fire, the fire
Only  the birds have wings
No  time  to be deceived
You  should know and not  believe
Jah  says this judgment
 Could never be with water
 So no water could  put out this fire
 This this fire, this this fire
 (them repeat from start)
 This this fire Ride Natty Ride
 Go deh Dready, go deh Dready, go deh
 Now the fire is burning
 Out of control panic in the city
 Wicked weeping for their gold
 Everywhere the fire is burning
 Destroying and melting their gold
 Destroying and wasting their souls
 Ride Natty Ride
 Go deh Dready, go deh Dready
 Go deh Dready, go deh
 Now the people gather on the beach
 And the leader try to make a speech
 But dread again tell them it's too late
 Fire is burning
 Man pull your own weight
 Fire is burning
 Man pull your own weight
 Natty dread rides again
 Go deh Dready, go deh Dready go deh
 Oh Ride Natty Ride
 Natty dread rides again
 Go deh Dready, go deh, go deh Dready go deh
 Riding thru the storm
 And we're riding thru the calm
 Go deh, go deh
 We riding thru the thick
 We riding thru the thin
 Ride Natty, Ride Natty
