Toots and the Maytals - 54-46 That's My Number [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Chorus]
I said yeah (I said yeah), listen what I say (listen what I say)
I said yeah (I said yeah), listen what I say (listen what I say)

I said stick it up mister
Hear what I say sir
Get your hands in the air, sir
And you will get no hurt mister
Do what I say sir
Just what I mean sir
Get your hands in the air, sir
And you will get no hurt no

[Chorus]

Second thing they say I must join the office
Third thing they say, son - give me your number now
He'd say "what's your number?"
I don't answer
He'd say "what's your number, man?"
He'd say "WHAT'S YOUR NUMBER, NOW?"

I said "54-46, that's my number (woah...)" (x4)
One more time!

[Chorus]

[Interlude]

[Chorus]

Stick it up, mister!
Hear what I say, sir, yeah...
Get your hands in the air, sir!
And you will get no hurt sir

He said "Turn out your left pocket"
"Ah, Give me a clean search sir"
"Take off your shirt sir"
"I ain't got no ratchet now"
"Stick it up mister! (I said yeah), Hear what I say sir! (I said yeah)"
"Get your hands in the air sir! (I said yeah), and you will get no hurt mister! (I said yeah)"

Woah! Yeah! (I said yeah)
Waah! Yeah! (I said yeah)
Stick it up mister now (I said yeah)
Hear what I say sir! (I said yeah)
