Song Lyrics

D.U.B.

UB40

When me reach me yard 
Me got one thing on me mind, 
To hold me little woman 
And fe make her feel iree. 
Be play album, dub plate, and forty-five 
For dat's the kind of riddim that keeps me alive. 
Me turn on fe me radio 
Some a chat 'bout dat 
But I know more than D.J. 
So I nah play you dat. 
(Chorus) 
Me tek a 'D' and a 'U' 
An' a 'B' - not 'E' 
That thing there 
Is special to me. 
Me listen in the morning 
Also in the night 
For dat form of music 
Is outasight. 
The newest form of music 
Is easy to see 
It start with a 'D' 
And end with a 'B' 
Dub in a de morning 
And dub in a de night 
Mek the whole neighbourhood 
Feel alright, feel alright 

When me reach me yard 
Me got one thing on me mind, 
To hold me little woman 
And fe mek her fell iree. 

When me reach me yard 
Me got one thing on me mind, 
To hold me little woman 
And fe mek her fell iree. 

Me tek a 'D' and a 'U' 
An' a 'B' - not 'E' 
That thing there 
Is special to me. 
Me listen in the morning 
Also in the night 
For dat form of music 
Is outasight. 
The newest form of music 
Is easy to see 
It start with a 'D' 
And end with a 'B' 
Dub in a de morning 
And dub in a de night 
Mek the whole neighbourhood 
Feel alright, feel alright 

Rock in a de dance 
Me seh fe give dub a chance, 
Rock in de blues 
You know you jus' can't lose. 
A dub me a defend 
On dub i can depend 
Check out dis yah music 
And run tell yo' friend. 
We don't want rock 'n' roll 
And we got enough soul, 
We don't want rock 'n' roll 
And we got enough soul. 
Bass is beutiful 
If it's clean, 
But dis yah dub music 
Man, it well mean. 
No bother follow friend 
And ignore dub again. 
It's simple, but effective 
Can't you see? 
A lot of people catch on in 'eight-three. 
Now is 'eighty-four 
And you must know the score, 
Anything me chat, you know 
The people bawl 'more.' 

Me jump 'pon de graphics 
Don't get vex' 
All me have 
A total concept 
To make you feel 
Iree. 

To make you feel 
Iree.
