Jacob Miller Forward Ever Lyrics

I've got a top rankin' sound
going to mash the town
so gather the people from around
get dem to rock to the sound

A mi say, sing this song of culture
A mi say, singing dem songs of love
A mi say, singing dem songs of culture
A mi say, singing dem songs of love

A mi say, forward ever and a backward never
forward ever and a back, a backward never
yeah - woh-oh - yeah

Songs for the people to unite
teaching them not to fight
manners must turn to discipline
that's what your justice will a, will a bring!

Sing dem a song of culture
A mi say, singing dem songs of love
A mi say, singing dem a song of a culture
A mi say, singing dem a songs of love

A mi say, forward ever and a backward never forward ever and a back, a backward never, a backward
never, a backward never
Yeah...

[scatting]

A mi say, singing dem a song of a culture
A mi say, singing dem a songs of love
singing dem a song of a culture
A mi say, singing dem a songs of love

A mi say, forward ever and a backward never
forward ever and a back, a backward never, a backward
never,
a backward never-never-never-never

Singing dem a song of a culture
A mi say, singing dem a songs of love
A mi say, sing dem song of culture
A mi say, singing dem a songs of love

A mi say, forward ever and a backward never
forward ever and a back, a backward never, a backward
never, a backward never...
