Chorus: Memories dont live like people do

They always 'member you

Whether things are good or bad

Now yuh dead that mean yuh soul lost

Crushed like a serpent snake under grass (again!)

Just member when man a ride 'orse

Body between di board head peep through the glass

Crushed like a serpent snake under grass
