Am - Dm - Em  

Out on the corner 
With my roller skates 
Having fun with the girls 
Says i'm feeling great woo 
In the dark of the night 
Street lamps glowing 
On full blast is my radio 
Radio 

Up comes this guy in his flashy car 
In his mouth stuck a big cigar 
Needed my help said he lost his way 
I never heard a word he said 
To find some street, said he wanted instructions 
So i turned down the music 
To point out directions, guess what? 
Guy jumped on me messed up my clothes 
Smashed and grabbed my radio 
Calling all detectives 
A criminal at large smoking 
A big fat cigar in a flashy car 
And think him some superstar 

Life life without music 
I can't go go no 
Life without music i can't go 


I'm gonna get him 
The last thing i do 
Must get a beating 
Till him red and blue 

Didn't take long to catch him 
Parked up car and music blasting 
On the sidewalk he was dancing 
Stealing the show, the people watching 
Roller skate gang 
Was hot on his tracks 
Stick him up mister 
Give me back give me back 
Give me back give me back 
My radio 
Guy jumped on me messed up my clothes 
Saaahed and grabbed my radio 
Calling all detectives 
A criminal at large smoking 
A big fat cigar in a flashy car 
And think him some super star 

Life life without music 
I can't go 
Life life without music 
I can't go 


Life without music 
Bimma! murder style 
Dem have fe get a beatin' 
Say dem have fe get a beatin' 
Nothing greater nothing best 
Like the music from my wireless 
And the only thing that i detest 
Is the man who steal my wireless 
Him ha fe run like a fugitive 
Him ha fe run from detective 
Samuel thomas is the thief name 
Lie must a lead life of shame 
Some a dem call him uncle sam 
Some a dem call him uncle tom 
Uncle sam and uncle tom 
Yes they are the same man 
S.a.m. means "stealaway music" 
T.o.m. means "thiefer of music" 
The druna and the bass 
Have fe move me waist 
The ridim and skank 
Me have jah fe thank. 
The lyrics and song 
Me have fe keep me strong 
Samuel thomas him have fe get vank 
Him have fe get a beatin' 
Him have fe get a beatin'
