Ziggy Marley Garden Lyrics

Garden Lyrics

In the garden of righteousness

Where to weep is to learn

There the wicked is no contest (No contest)

We conquer them all



Jah don't spare the rod so the man can't spoil

Jah don't spare the rod so the man can't spoil



In the garden of wickedness

You reap what you sow

There the youths should dare not go

Remember what you been told



Jah don't spare the rod so the man can't spoil

(Jah don't spare the rod so the man can't spoil)

Jah don't spare the rod so the man can't spoil

(Jah don't spare the rod so the man can't spoil)



In the garden of fruitfulness

You plant and it grows, yeh

There death is of no threat

Life ever flows



Jah don't spare the rod so the man can't spoil

(Jah don't spare the rod so the man can't spoil)

Jah don't spare the rod so the man can't spoil

(Jah don't spare the rod so the man can't spoil)



In the garden of happiness

Where life is at it's best (Ha, ha, ha, ha)

Despair is far from near

I'm free from all material cares



Jah don't spare the rod so the man can't spoil

(Jah don't spare the rod)

Jah never spare the rod so the man can't spoil

(Jah don't spare the rod, Jah don't, Jah don't)



In the garden of righteousness (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

Where to weep is to learn

There the wicked is no contest (No contest)

We've conquered them all



Jah don't spare the rod so the man can't spoil

(Jah don't spare the rod so the man can't spoil)

Jah don't spare the rod so the man can't spoil

(Jah don't spare the rod so the man can't spoil)



Jah don't spare the rod so the man can't spoil

(Jah don't spare the rod so the man can't spoil)

Jah don't spare the rod so the man can't spoil

(Jah don't spare the rod)



Never spare your rod from me

(Jah don't spare the rod)

Never spare your rod from me

(Jah don't spare the rod so the man can't spoil)



Jah never spare that rod from me

(Jah don't spare the rod so the man can't spoil)

I need it desperately now

Never, never, never
