Small Axe Songtext
von Bob Marley & The Wailers

Why boasteth thyself, oh evil men?
Playing smart and not being clever
I said, you′re working iniquity to achieve vanity
But the goodness of Jah, Jah, indureth for iver

So, if you are the big tree
We are the small axe
Ready to cut you down
To cut you down

These are the words of my master
Keep on telling me
No weapon shall prosper
Eh, whosoever diggeth a pit
Shall fall in it, fall in it
And whosoever diggeth a pit
Shall fall in it (fall in it)

If you are the big tree (let me tell you that)
We are the small axe
Ready to cut you down
To cut you down


If you are the big tree
We are the small axe
Ready to cut you down
To cut you down

These are the words of my master
Telling me that, "No weapon shall prosper"
And whosoever diggeth a pit
Shall fall in it, fall in it
And whosoever diggeth a pit
Shall bury in it, uh

If you are the big tree
We are the small axe
Ready to cut you down
To cut you down

If you are the big tree
We are the small axe
Ready to cut you down
To cut you down

Big tree
We are the small axe
Ready to cut you down
To cut you down
