Say the tide of time was raging; Don't let the fury fall on me, no, no! (I) 'Cause I know (know) -know: Jah will be waiting there; (I) Ain't it good to know (know) now: Jah will be waiting there. Wo-oo-o-oo-o! Ooh, yeah! Lost and found, who speak I give; Lost and found, who speak I give; Speak I give, lost and found. Lost and found, who speak I give; Lost and found, who speak I give. /fadeout/ [*This word supplied by the sleeve notes] 10. RASTAMAN LIVE UP! [Bob Marley; Lee Perry] Rastaman, live up!
