Bob Marley Memphis Lyrics

Oh, oh. op-bo, bo, bo-bo-bo!
Oh, oh. op-bo, bo, bo-bo-bo!
Yes, me friend, me friend
Them set me free again
Yes, me friend, me friend
Me deh 'pon street again
The bars could not hold me
Force could not control me now
They try to keep me down
But God put me around
Yes, I've been accused
Wrongly abused, now
But through the powers of the Most-'Igh
They've got to turn me loose...Mm!
(Brrr) Don't try (brrr)
To cold me up (brrr)
On this (brrr) bridge now
I've got to reach Mount Zion
The 'ighest region
(Brrr) If you bull-bucka
Let me tell you that
I'm a duppy conqueror - conqueror
Yes, me friend, me good friend
Them set me free again, mm
Yes, me friend
Them turn me loose again
(Brrr) Don't try (brrr)
To cold me up on (brrr)
This (brrr) bridge now
I've got to reach Mount Zion
The 'ighest region
(Brrr) If you bull-bucka
Let me tell you
I'm a duppy conqueror - hit it! (conqueror)
(Yes, me friend,) me friend, me friend, me friend
We deh a street again
Yes, me friend, me friend, me friend
Dem set me free again

We deh a street again, yea-eah
Yes, me friend, me friend, me friend
(Dem set me free again.)
Oo-oo-ooh, yea-eah. Mm-mm
Bars could not hold me
