Oh, yeah now
Uh-uh, oh, yeah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Uh-uh-uh-uh (yeah)

A peace-man time
A peace-man time

I can't take no fussing or the fighting
Neither di brutality
All of these things are exploiting
And-a ruining my personality

A roots man time
A roots man time
The roots man time
Roots woman time (woah)
Yeah, oh, yeah now
A roots man time (yes)

I can't take no fussing or the fighting
Neither di brutality
All of these things are exploiting
And ruining my personality

A roots man time
A roots man time (yes)

The youths of today
Will be the men of tomorrow
I know that one day will come
They will wipe away the sufferers around

A Youthman time
A Youthman time
