Bob gave the world good advice,
Before grave illness struck him down
Although the lyrics were imprecise
Bob sang;
“Gonna chase those crazy baldheads outta town”
Some may not understand this line
Others may dance instead of listen
Bob knew;
White racist/bigoted politicos’ had to go,
Because Jamaicans refused annexation
History repeats in the world today
With new “Baldheads” coming ‘round,
To promise much n’ then betray
“Gotta chase these crazy baldheads outta town”
“Only peace brings all things to light”
Now this troubled world knows;
“Bob was right”

(Thank you Bob Marley for your brave reach for peace)

Why is it that the good guys who stand up and speak always seem to leave us too soon? I have a Bob Marley shirt down to my thighs and when I wear it - somehow I get strange looks. This is a great poem and song for all to listen to.
I always loved the music and the subject matter.
