Standard (EADGBE)

 (Original Key: )

Intro

Verse 1

 I was walkin' down the street

 Concen-tratin' on truckin' right

 I heard a dark voice beside of me

 And I looked round in a state of fright

Bridge 1

 I saw four faces one mad

 A brother from the gutter

 They looked me up and down a bit

 And turned to each other

  I say

Chorus 1

 I don't like cricket oh no

 I love it

 I don't like cricket oh no

 I love it

Break

 Don't you walk thru my words

You got to show some respect

Don't you walk thru my words

 'Cause you ain't heard me out yet

Verse 2

 Well he looked down at my silver chain

 He said I'll give you one dollar

 I said You've got to be jokin' man

 It was a present from me Mother

Bridge 2

 He said I like it I want it

 I'll take it off your hands

 And you'll be sorry you crossed me

 You'd better understand that you're a-lone

 A long way from home

  And I say

Chorus 2

 I don't like reggae no no

 I love it

 I don't like reggae no no

 I love it

Break

 Don't you cramp me style

Don't you queer on me pitch

Don't you walk thru my words

 'Cause you ain't heard me out yet

Verse 3

 I hurried back to the swimming pool

 Sinkin' pina coladas

 I heard a dark voice beside me say

 Would you like something harder

Bridge 3

 She said I've got it you want it

 My harvest is the best

 And if you try it you'll like it

 And wallow in a Dreadlock Holi-day

  And I say

Chorus 3

 Don't like Ja-maica oh no

 I love her

 Don't like Ja-maica oh no

 I love her

Break

 Don't you walk thru her words

You got to show some respect

Don't you walk thru her words

 'Cause you ain't heard her out yet

Chorus 4

 I don't like cricket oh no

 I love it (Dreadlock Holiday)

 I don't like reggae no no

 I love it (Dreadlock Holiday)

 Don't like Ja-maica oh no

 I love her (Dreadlock Holiday)
