The People Got To Know

Sugar Minott

Ooh yes oh yes 

Yes the people have to know 
that in the beginning 
Jah He created the earth 
and all the things there in 

Yes the people have to know 
that He gave it to men 
to subdue and have dominion 
over everything 
on this earth 
oh yes 

Yes the people have to know (2x) 

Yes the people ought to know 
that men made a mess 
of this whole world 
so it will serve theirs soul 

Yes the people ought to know 
that Jah was displeased 
and in His wroth he send a flood 
to destroy wickedness 

Oh yes, the people have to know (2x) 

Oh, got to tell them 
I just got to tell them 

Yes the people ought to know 
that God gave men a chance 
to redeem his soul 
once again 
but it seems as if 
he wanna do the same 
sinfullness on this earth 
oh yeah, wickedness 

Yes the people ought to know (3x) 
Brimstone and fire (2x) 
The people have to know 
Oh yes, the people have to know 
Got to know 
They got to know
