The Wailers

Bob Marley and the Wailers (previously known as The Wailers, and prior to that The Wailing Rudeboys, The Wailing Wailers and The Teenagers) were a Jamaican ska, rocksteady and reggae band. The founding members, in 1963, were Bob Marley (Robert Nesta Marley), Peter Tosh (Hubert Winston McIntosh), and Bunny Wailer (Neville Livingston).

What your hands do
It's your own eyes that've seen
So won't you judge your actions
To make sure the results are clean?

It's your own conscience
That is gonna remind you
That it's your heart and nobody else's
That is gonna judge

Be not selfish in your doings
Pass it on (Pass it on, children)
Help your brothers (help them) in their needs
Pass it on

Live for yourself and you will live in vain
Live for others, you will live again

In the kingdom of Jah
Man shall reign
Pass it on
Pass it on
Pass it on
Pass it on

What's in the darkness
Must be revealed to light
We're not here to judge what's good from bad
But to do the things that are right

On a hot, sunny day
Follow the shadows for rescue
But as the day grows old
I know the sun is gonna find you

Be not selfish in your doings
Pass it on
Help your brothers in their needs
Pass it on

Live for yourself, you will live in vain
Live for others, you will live again

In the kingdom of Jah
Man shall reign
Pass it on
Pass it on
Pass it on
Pass it on (Pass it on)
