[Intro]
Great sounds I would lead to you
Sound's kind of "Part Two" (And it true)
When I man throw dis one straight to your head
You bound to tell your friend (Ke-ke-ke-ke)

[Chorus]
Rice an' peas in the ghetto (Say so!)
Rice an' peas in the ghetto, as I would tell you
Rice an' peas in the ghetto
I said, a rice an' peas
A man, I say, fi take it at ease

[Refrain]
Ski-ba-bap, ski-ba-bop
Ski-ba-bap-bap-bop-bop, skip up on ya, dread on ya
Ski-ba-bap, ski-ba-bop
Ski-ba-bap-bap-bop, dread on ya (Huh!)

[Chorus]
Mi said, a rice an' peas in the ghetto
Say, rice an' peas in the ghetto
Say, rice an' peas in the ghetto
Say, rice an' peas in the ghetto
[Verse 1]
'Cause, I man dreadlocks-dread, I man don't deal with nitty-gritty
A no vanity, a no form of badness
'Cause, I man deal with strictly righteousness that will dominate bad history, edu-heights, as I would tell you (On ya)

[Refrain]
Ski-ba-bap, ski-ba-bop
Ski-ba-bap-bap-ba-bop
Ski-ba-bop, ski-ba-bap
Ski-ba-bo-bo-bo-bap (On ya)

[Verse 2]
Where we've got to go, where we sat
An' that's a natural fact
Straight in Africa, as I would tell you
An' I man is dreader than dread
As I man goin' to my land again (To make you tell your friend)

[Refrain]
Ski-ba-bap, ski-ba-bop
Ski-ba-bap-bap-ba-bop, dread on ya, dread on ya
Ski-ba-bap, ski-ba-bop
Ski-ba-bap-bap-bap-bap, dread on ya, on ya

[Bridge]

Mi say, fi comin' in di house of dread

Ski-ba-bap-bap-ba-bop, dread on ya (Yeah)

[Chorus]
Say, rice an' peas in the ghetto
Say, rice an' peas in the ghetto, as I would tell you
Say, rice an' peas in the ghetto
Say so; say so

Fi go there (Yeah)
I man say, fi go there (Irie)
Ski-ba-bop, ski-ba-bap
Ski-ba-bop-bop-bop-bop
