Bob Marley & The Wailers

400 years (400 years, 400 years.
Wo-o-o-o)
And it's the same - The same (wo-o-o-o) philosophy

I've said it's four hundred years; (400 years, 400 years.
Wo-o-o-o, wo-o-o-o) Look, how long (wo-o-o-o)
And the people they (wo-o-o-o) still can't see.
Why do they fight against the poor youth of today?
And without these youths, they would be gone -
All gone astray
Come on, let's make a move: (make a move, make a move.
Wo-o-o-o, wo-o-o-o) I can (wo-o-o-o) see time (wo-o-o-o) - time has come, And if-a fools don't see (fools don't see, fools don't see.
Wo-o-o-o) I can't save the youth: The youth (wo-o-o-o) is gonna be strong.
So, won't you come with me; I'll take you to a land of liberty Where we can live - live a good, good life And be free.
Look how long: 400 years, (400 years, 400 years) - Way too long! (wo-o-o-o) That's the reason my people (wo-o-o-o) - my people can't see.
Said, it's four hundred long years - (400 years, 400 years.

So, won't you come with me; I'll take you to a land of liberty Where we can live - live a good, good life And be free.
Look how long: 400 years, (400 years, 400 years) - Way too long! (wo-o-o-o) That's the reason my people (wo-o-o-o) - my people can't see.
Said, it's four hundred long years - (400 years, 400 years.
Wo-o-o-o) Give me patience (wo-o-o-o) - same philosophy.
It's been 400 years, (400 years, 400 years) Wait so long!
Wo-o-o-o, wo-o-o-o.
How long?
400 long, long years. /fadeout/
