The Mighty Diamonds

The Mighty Diamonds, was a legendary Jamaican harmony trio recording roots reggae with a strong Rastafarian influence, are one of the most internationally popular reggae groups to emerge from the '70s roots era. Regardless of whether they are singing love songs or protest anthems, the Mighty Diamonds bring a startling emotional commitment to their best material and their debut album, Right Time, still stands as one of roots reggae's all-time classics. On March 29, 2022, their lead singer, Donald "Tabby" Shaw, was shot dead in a drive-by shooting. On April 1, 2022, Fitzroy "Bunny" Simpson died. They disbanded shortly afterwards. more »

Yeah, Yeah Shame and pride is killing you girl. x3 
Look all the things I gave you 
What did you do, only made you feel blue 
I try my best to prove my love to you, 
But you didn't understand, Natty 
Oh no, you didn't understand, Dreadie 

[Chorus: x4]

Remember in school how we loved each other 
I used to see you wait by the school yard gate, yeah 
Now we've grown up something seems to be wrong 
But oh no, you didn't understand, Natty 
Oh no, you didn't understand, Dreadie 

[Chorus]
 
repeat last verse
