Barrington Levy - Here I Come | Live at the BBC chords
Start Jamming...
How can you not love a record that has the immortal line,
Every jam we play we break two needles,
There's three of us but we're not the Beatles.
Pure poetry there from Run DMC and King of Rock,
And I think they ought to stick to the real-life drummer,
It certainly sounds better to me.
It's time now for our second studio guest,
A gentleman who's been a household name in reggae circles
In Jamaica and in Britain for about ten years now,
But has only recently dented the fun 40.
Here with the song that crossed over, as we music biz types say,
This is Barrington Levy.

_ How can you not love a record that has the immortal line,
