[Intro]
Love and hate can never be friends
Oh no, oh-oh, oh no
[Chorus]
Here I come, with love and not hatred
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow I
All the days of I life
Envy no one, no wish to be with no evil man
For, there'll come the day
When you'll be whipped by the father's hand
[Refrain]
Live up roots children (Woh-yeah)
Live up Rasta children (Yeah)
[Verse 1]
My head is anointed and my cup runneth over
Surely goodness and mercy
Shall follow I, all the days of I life (Yeah)
[Bridge]
Woh-yeah now, woh-ye-yeah
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh (Alright!)
Oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
Here I come, with love and not hatred
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow I
All the days of I life
Envy no one, no wish to be with no evil man
For, there'll come the day
When you'll be whipped by the father's hand
[Refrain]
Oh-oh-oh (Live up roots children)
Oh-oh-oh (Oh yeah)
Oh-oh-oh (Live up roots children)
Oh-oh-oh (Oh yeah)
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
My head is anointed and my cup runneth over (Yeah)
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow I
All the days of I life (Yeah)
[Bridge]
Woh-yeah now, woh-ye-yeah
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh (Alright!)
Oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
Here I come, with love and not hatred
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow I
All the days of I life
Envy no one, no wish to be with no evil man
For, there'll come the day
When you'll be whipped by the father's hand
[Refrain]
Oh-oh-oh (Live up roots children)
Oh-oh-oh (Oh yeah)
Oh-oh-oh (Live up Rasta children)
Oh-oh-oh (Yeah)

My head is anointed and my cup runneth over (Yeah)
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow I
All the days of I life
