Culture & I-Roy - I'm Not Ashamed & Under Tight Wraps (Extended Mix)
Joe Gibbs & The Professionals - Tight For Shame



La la la la la laaa.. means I love Jah, yeh!
La la la la la laaa.. means I love Jah, yeh!

I'm not ashamed, I'm not ashamed,
I'm not ashamed to hold Jah Jah,
Not in any crowd!
I'm not ashamed, I'm not ashamed,
I'm not ashamed to hold Jah Jah, oh no!

For when I was down an' out,
He was the one who help me out.
Stretch forth His hands,
For I when I'm in distress.

For even when my mother hide,
And my father was sickly, yeah.
He said "come inside, come on, I'll take thy hand."
An' that is why, hear me all!

(..)

La la la la la laaa.. means I love Jah, hear!
La la la la la laaa.. means I love Jah - yeah!

I'm not ashamed, I'm not ashamed,
I'm not ashamed to shake up my knots,
Not even in the street!

I'm not ashamed, I'm not ashamed,
I'm not ashamed to shake up my knots,
Not even in church!

I'm not ashamed, I'm not ashamed,
I'm not ashamed to shake up my knots,
Not even among the!

I'm not ashamed, I'm not ashamed,
I'm not ashamed to shake up my knots,
Not even among the greatest set of men!

I'm not ashamed, I'm not ashamed,
I'm not ashamed to shake up my knots,
I'm an African descendant!
