Kingston Town was a hit off of Alborosie’s album Soul Pirate. It samples the Scientist dub track “When I Love”. It is an ode to the ruff an tuff nature of Kingston town, touching on poverty and crime.

[Chorus]
Sipple it down, down
Sipple it down, down
It's a rude bwoy town
It's Kingston town
Sipple it down, down
Sipple it down, down
It's a rude bwoy town
It's Kingston town
[Verse 1]
Some man have no manners, still ah try fi beg a ting
If you no drop no green, ah straight up dissing ting
Sun ah bun traffic, it's a slow riddim
JCF ah move ruff, dem buss di M-16
Some man ah drive up and down, dem have di latest ting
Machine fit inna dem jeans ah show off girls and bling
Smell of marijuana round eh corner dem juggling
One mad man get him food straight outta di garbage bin, ayy
[Chorus]
Sipple it down, down
Sipple it down, down
It's a rude bwoy town
It's Kingston town
Sipple it down, down
Sipple it down, down
It's a rude bwoy town
It's Kingston town
Sipple it down, down
Sipple it down, down
It's a rude bwoy town
It's Kingston town
Sipple it down, down
Sipple it down, down
It's a rude bwoy town
It's Kingston town
[Verse 2]
Dis ah di gun land, blood run cold pon di white sand
Concrete ah bun but some part up your team bad
Babylon bwoy dem kill a yute, an one old woman a chant psalm
While a next set ah man start di rat-ta-ta-tan-tan
Dem dig more grave than rooms up ah Hilton
Small community get wash out by a blood storm
Every weekend same routine, whole new function
Push and dem count more dead than 9/11 destruction, ayy
[Chorus]
Sipple it down, down
Sipple it down, down
It's a rude bwoy town
It's Kingston town
Sipple it down, down
Sipple it down, down
It's a rude bwoy town
It's Kingston town
Sipple it down, down
Sipple it down, down
It's a rude bwoy town
It's Kingston town
Sipple it down, down
Sipple it down, down
It's a rude bwoy town
It's Kingston town
[Verse 3]
Di gyal dem pants tight like rubber suit
And ah dem blouse one tiny sup'm hide up perfect boobs
Dem always ah smile if you go pay di I
Dem a go play you one trick if you ah mama's bwoy
It's a tuff man town, there's no crown and no throne
It a go lick you down with a dancehall sound
If you a stranger and yuh drive, mek sure you know the route
You don't wanna get salute by a gun dispute
[Chorus]
Sipple it down, down
Sipple it down, down
It's a rude bwoy town
It's Kingston town
Sipple it down, down
Sipple it down, down
It's a rude bwoy town
It's Kingston town
Sipple it down, down
Sipple it down, down
It's a rude bwoy town
It's Kingston town
Sipple it down, down
Sipple it down, down
It's a rude bwoy town
It's Kingston town
