Stop the Fussing and Fighting

Jah come down and set us free

[scatting]
Wooh eh, wooh eh
Skaba-yaba-yoba bayayba baya-hah
Wooh eh, wooh eh
Skaba-yaba-yoba bayayba baya-hah

Stop this fussing and fighting, brother
Stop this fussing and fighting, brother
It's a shame
To see the people fighting in the streets
Eh! Drawing guns at each other
For nothing at all oh

Blood came splashing o'er the towns
From town to town, around and around, yeah
Do Jah please, stop them, I pray
While I call my brethrens, say
Stop this fussing and fighting, brother

[scatting]

Blood came splashing down the streets
It brings my heart to a faster beat
Also one of my innocent brethren
Got a shot in his wrist and he has got to step aside
Step wide from them an' their war my brethren
Stop this fussing and fighting, brother

[scatting]

Sometimes early in the mornings
When the children want, go to school
All because of your screw faces
They're afraid to walk on the streets so deliberately
Really what I want to say
They want liberty to walk and learn the lesson well
Don't be no fool in this time
Do Jah come down with compassion and stop them
Stop this fussing and fighting, brother

[scatting]

Innocent blood should not be shed
It's a sin before the Almighty
The blood leak from in the town
And we should footing up the hills in the woods
And that's why I got to cry out
Stop this fussing and fighting, brother
