Verse 1
Rosie say she
can’t take it no more
She going away
Rosie say she fed up- she going to
the USA
Things too hard, crime is bad
This
country is too dangerous
Pack yuh bag, leh we leave
And the world
is waiting on us
She mother file for we
She brother go sponsor we
Papers in the embassy
Ah sorry - ah cyar leave here Rosie
Chorus
Pan in meh blood
Ah love to hear steelband playing
Pan in meh blood
To see pan man ramajay
Pan in meh blood - to jump up in ah
band
Pan in meh blood
To help to push ah stand
Pan in meh blood
To hear the ringing of the iron
Pan in meh blood - ah love meh tenor
pan
Pan in meh blood
The sweet double second
Pan in meh blood- to hear the guitar
strum
Pan in meh blood
The sound of the bass drum
Ah love meh country like pig love
mud
Pan in meh blood
Verse 2
Rosie say, every
day
In the news is somebody dead
Leh we go
Before dey break down the
door
And kill we instead
Ah frighten every kid on the block
Now toting ah gun
If we stay very soon to survive
We
have to get one
The law doing nothing
Only new car
they driving
Bandits ain’t fraid nobody
Broad daylight is kidnap and robbery
Chorus

Verse 3
Rosie girl - long

Every street steelband coming
down
Carnival - yuh walk
The whole town
looking for one
DJ hog, every truck, every block
Every street

To hear pan every year
Yuh must wait
for Panorama
The steelband here dying
Government doing
nothing
If I desert my country
Then come
back
Steelband could be history
Chorus
