Lyin' In Bed

Ziggy Marley · Other Songs - Ziggy Marley

Praise god I say, praise god each day.

He helped me to overcome

I remember once I couldn't get out of bed

So I sing and say, yeah.



Lying in bed got nothing to do

No one to rub my head

Playing my guitar my only friend

Its gonna last me till the end

Don't wanna land it

Wanna get out instead

I wanna feel free with activity.



Above my bed bob face us all

Looking at me so passionately

Well in his eyes I saw the truth

The truth of a rastaman

The truth of a higher man.



To the bridge

Don't wanna land it

Wanna get out instead

I wanna feel free with activity

Well I got lots and lots of company yeah

Alot of good vibes flowing around me

Nurses coming and wondering, o god

Is this really Ziggy Marley.



Lying in bed got nothing to do

No one to rub my head

Strumming my guitar my only friend

Its gonna last me till the end



Above my bed bob face us all, my daddy

Looking at me so passionately, lil brother

Well in his eyes I saw the truth, my name

The truth of a rastaman

The truth of a higherman.



Rastafari no, I n I give praises

I n I thank jah for, his health

If it was not for him

What would I, what would I've done

So I say amen.



Don't wanna land it

Wanna get out instead

I wanna feel free with activity

Don't wanna land it

Wanna get out instead

I wanna feel free with activity

Don't wanna land it

Wanna get out instead

I wanna feel free with activity
