007 (Shanty Town) Lyrics

0-0-7, 0-0-7
At ocean eleven
And now rude boys have a go wail
'Cause them out of jail
Rude boys cannot fail
'Cause them must get bail

Dem a loot, dem a shoot, dem a wail (a shanty town)
Dem a loot, dem a shoot, dem a wail (a shanty town)
Dem rude boys get a probation (a shanty town)
And rude boy bomb up the town (a shanty town)

0-0-7, 0-0-7
At ocean eleven
And the rude boys a go wail
'Cause them out of jail
Rude boys cannot fail
'Cause them must get bail

Dem a loot, dem a shoot, dem a wail (a shanty town)
Dem a loot, dem a shoot, dem a wail (a shanty town)
Dem rude boys get a probation (a shanty town)
And rude boy bomb up the town (a shanty town)

Police get taller (a shanty town)
Soldier get longer (a shanty town)
Rude boy a weep and a wail (a shanty town)
Rude boy a weep and a wail (a shanty town)
