With version |

Music happens to be the food of love |
|
Sounds to really make you rub and scrub |

Bum-biddly-biddly-biddly-biddly-biddly-biddly-bum |

It was a cool and lovely breezy afternoon |
|
(How does it feel when you got no food?) |
|
You could feel it 'cause it was the month of June |
|
(How does it feel when you got no food?) |
|
So I left my gate and went out for a walk |
|
(How does it feel when you got no food?) |
|
As I pass the dreadlocks' camp I heard them say |
|
(How does it feel when you got no food?) |
|
Pass the dutchie 'pon the left hand side (I say) |

|
Bum-bum-biddly-bum-biddly-bum-bum-bum-biddly-bum-biddly-biddly-bum |
|

|
So I stopped to find out what was going on |
|
(How does it feel when you got no food?) |
|
'Cause the spirit of Jah, you know he leads you on |
|
(How does it feel when you got no food?) |
|
There was a ring of dreads and a session was there in swing |
|
(How does it feel when you got no food?) |
|
And you could feel the chill as I seen and heard them say |
|
(How does it feel when you got no food?) |
