Video y letra de Ambush In The Night de Bob Marley

La cancion que les traemos se llama Ambush In The Night. Figura como una de las mejores obras de Bob Marley. La verdad, no es una cancion que digamos novedosa, pero vale la pena tenerla.

El sencillo que acaban escuchar pertece al album Survival. El video, en cambio, no es del todo bueno.

(Ooh-wee, ooh-wee, ooh-wa!)
See them fighti ng fo r power (ooh-wee, ooh-wee, ooh-wa!),
But they know n ot the hour (ooh-wee, ooh-wee, ooh-wa!),;
So they bribi ng with their guns, spare-parts a nd money,
Tryi ng t o belittle our
I ntegrity now.
They say what we know
I s just what they teach us;
A nd we're so igno rant
'Cause every time they can reach us (shoobe, doo-wa)
Through political strategy (shoo-be, doo-wa);
They keep us hungry (shoobe, doo-wa),
A nd when you gonna get some food (shoobe, doo-wa),
Your brother got t o be your enemy, we-e-ell!

Ambush i n the night,
All guns aimi ng at me;
Ambush i n the night,
They opened fire on me now.
Ambush i n the night,
Protected by Hi s Majesty.
Ooh-wee, ooh-wee. Ooh-wa-ooh!
(Ooh-wee) Ooh-wee, ooh-wee (ooh-wa), Ooh-wa!
Ooh-wee, ooh-wee, ooh wa-ooh!
Ooh-wee, ooh-wee, ooh wa-ah!

Well, what we know
I s n ot what they tell us;
We're n ot igno rant, I mean it,
A nd they just cann ot t ouch us;
Through the powers of the Most-I (shoobe, doo-wa),
We keep on surfaci n' (shoobe, doo-wa);
Thru the powers of the Most-I (shoobe, doo-wa),
We keep on survivi n'.

Yeah, thi s ambush i n the night
Planned by society;
Ambush i n the night;
They tryi n' t o conquer me;
Ambush i n the night
Anyt'i ng money can bri ng;
Ambush i n the night
Planned by society;
Ambush i n the night – [fadeout]
