about

A throwback to the early dub riddims of old composed and performed by Natty Campbell with a melodic driving vocal from Dreadzone front man MC Spee.

Long Road is a bass heavy sound system ideal song bound to go down well in any roots dance.

lyrics

I know where I come from do you know where you're going my friend
I know the road will be long but you'll get there in the end

now this one I tell you dem a old school style
Mr spee me tell you him a drive you wild
watch out for the bassline I tell you studio one session
mek a dis a one dem come

The road is long, but your heart is strong
one foot inna di other know you cant be wrong
the journey that you take reminds you of the song
when you reach your destination it will be mount zion yeah

I know where I come from do you know where you're going my friend
I know the road will be long but you'll get there in the end

When you step up on the gravel, you travel
The trouble will double it will try to burst your bubble
stand strong when you walk along and you will receive the guidance that you need my son

I know where I come from do you know where you're going my friend
I know the road will be long but you'll get there in the end

Nah black and no white
no brother no fight
no pig in no mess
no wrong and no right
no tougher than tough
we just had enough
of the tings that make the people cuss
people are starving children are dying
the ones that people are lying
drugs are taken money is maken
I think your faking make no mistake and
I think its vital for you to recycle
the carton you use when you nyam up your ital
the tree the sky the sea the land
the bird the fish the common man
and we must try to understand
the elements of this natural land

I know where I come from do you know where you're going my friend
I know the road will be long but you'll get there in the end

The road is long, but your heart is strong
one foot inna di other know you cant be wrong
the journey that you take reminds you of the song
when you reach your destination it will be mount zion yeah

When you step up on the gravel, you travel
The trouble will double it will try to burst your bubble
stand strong when you walk along and you will receive the guidance that you need my son

I know where I come from do you know where you're going my friend
I know the road will be long but you'll get there in the end
I know where I come from do you know where you're going my friend
I know the road will be long but you'll get there in the end
