| Wake up this morning and read the newspaper in my land
 | 
| Against ganja a brand new fight began (say what)
 | 
| Yet them nuh see the man with the coke in the paper
 | 
| Somehow, this ting is well organized
 | 
| Inna New York, dem a run down the crack
 | 
| Don’t watch me ganja, watch that
 | 
| Inna New York, dem a run down the crack, Lord
 | 
| Inna New York, dem a run down the crack
 | 
| Police and soldiers and boys
 | 
| Inna New York, dem a run down the crack
 | 
| Saw another article with a youth and his mother (say so)
 | 
| Mother took his little pants to the laundry to wash
 | 
| Feel something quite slippery in the pocket
 | 
| When she check it out, there was cocaine
 | 
| She said: «Son, what are you doing with such a debris?»
 | 
| No hesitation, the boy blast down the mother
 | 
| Inna New York, dem a run down the crack
 | 
| Police, soldiers and rudeboys
 | 
| Inna New York, dem a run down the crack, my gosh
 | 
| Inna New York, dem a run down the crack
 | 
| Police and soldiers around the corner
 | 
| Inna New York, dem a run down the crack
 | 
| Inna New York, dem a run down the crack
 | 
| If you see dem faces when dem sniff the business
 | 
| Look like they ain’t got a moment to live
 | 
| And when you take a dim view up in dem nostrils
 | 
| Look like when dem drug racehorse ah Caymanas Park
 | 
| Inna New York, dem a run down the crack
 | 
| Don’t watch the ganja, watch that
 | 
| Inna New York, dem a run down the crack, my gosh
 | 
| Inna New York, dem a run down the crack
 | 
| They are so intelligent about it
 | 
| Inna New York, dem a run down the crack
 | 
| The daughters don’t even want to see their mothers
 | 
| All because of the foolish crack
 | 
| The sons don’t even want to see their fathers
 | 
| Even professional got spoiled by it too
 | 
| Inna New York, dem a look fi di crack
 |

 |

 | 
| No man can stop me from smoke my ganja
 | 
| Nor stop dem from sniff coke an' eat pork
 | 
| Neither Rasta a stop dem from go to the rum bar |
