Simmer Down

Bob Marley

[Chorus]
Simmer down; you lickin' too hot (So)
Simmer down; soon you'll get dropped (So)
Simmer down; can you hear what I say?
Simmer down; then why won't you, why won't you simmer down
Simmer down

[Verse 1]
Long time people-dem used to say
What sweet nanny goat a go run him belly (So)

[Chorus]
Simmer down; oh, control your temper
Simmer down; or the battle will be hotter
Simmer down; can you hear what I say?
Simmer down; oh, that I'm-a leaving you today
Simmer down

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Simmer down; oh, you hear what I say?
Simmer down; eh, that I'm-a leaving you today
Simmer down; can you hear what I say?
Simmer down

[Verse 2]
Chicken merry, hawk deh near
And when him deh near, you must beware (So)

[Chorus]
Simmer down; oh, control your temper
Simmer down; or the battle will be hotter
Simmer down; and you won't get no supper
Simmer down; and, you know, you're bound to suffer
Simmer down; simmer-simmer-simmer right down
Simmer down; like you never did before
Simmer down; oh-oh-oh
Simmer down; can you hear what I say?
Simmer down; you lickin' too hot (So)
Simmer down; and you know soon you'll get dropped (So)
Simmer down; why won't you simmer-simmer down?

[Outro]
Simmer down; simmer down
Simmer down; simmer down
Simmer down; oh, simmer-simmer down
Simmer down; like you never did before
