Carry Jah load, carry Jah load, well
A fe travel Jah road, must a fe travel Jah road
Dem say wha gwan bad a morning woi
Can't turn good inna evening
But all the things them a gwan with boy,
Rastaman nah watch it from morning
See them a make up them mind
Nah linger behind
Show them a sign oh Jah
So who a join Jah line don't linger behind
Don't waste no time, 'cause:

I and I a carry Jah word (carry Jah load)
Must a fi travel Jah road
I and I a carry Jah word (carry Jah load)
Mus' a fi travel Jah road

Higher the people dem bawling boy
You can never take heed to Jah calling
Marcus Garvey been warning boy
But you never even want to listen
So Jah a show you a sign
All you evil mankind in this time
Whether you deaf or you blind
You a fi repent for in this time

I and I a carry Jah word (carry Jah load)
Must a fe travel Jah road
I and I a carry Jah word (carry Jah load)
Must a fe travel Jah road
I and I a carry Jah word (carry Jah load)
Mus' a fe travel Jah road

Oh what a heavy load
Still a fi travel Jah road
And I will run to the hills, yeah
Seeking for refuge
My song is a rapture, in the bosom of Jah
Persecutors may try to capture my soul
But I know that I will get away
Dem say wha gwan bad a morning woh
Can't turn good inna evening
And all the things them a gwan with boy
Rastaman a watch it from morning
But Jah will show them a sign
Those who linger behind
Oh my god oh Lord yea
And I won't linger behind
I won't waste no more time.

I and I a carry Jah word (carry Jah load)
Must a fe travel Jah road
I and I a carry Jah word (carry Jah load)
Must a fe travel Jah road
I and I a carry Jah word (carry Jah load)
Must a fe travel Jah road
