I Got Caught
[Intro]
Don't be bad, don't be bad
[Verse 1]
I got caught in the wrong place, the wrong time
Now I am in prison, serving a sentence
Serving a sentence for the wrong that I have done
So, please, oh, please, my brothers
Oh, please, my sisters, try to do right
And it'll be a better way
I was wrong, now I am paying
Yes, I am paying for the wrong that I have done
[Chorus]
If I was in the house of Jah
Reasoning with Jah children
I wouldn't get caught
I wouldn't get caught stealing
If I was in the house of Jah
Sitting with Jah children
I wouldn't get caught
I wouldn't get caught stealing
[Interlude]
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, yeah
[Chorus]
If I was in the house of Jah
Wouldn't get caught
Sitting and praising Jah
Reasoning with Jah children
If I was in the house of Jah
Sitting with Jah children
I wouldn't be in prison at all
Serving this sentence
[Verse 2]
So, please, my brothers and sisters
Be careful of what you do, yes
Please humble yourself
Don't be a trouble
I got caught at the wrong place, yes
At the wrong time, yeah
Now I am in prison
Now I am in prison for the wrong that I have done
Don't go on
With the things that you used to do
Remember army barracks
Have bazooka too
Get smart, youth man, remember educations
The time is so crucial
Please behave yourself
