Yes it is..''All who is running from Jamaica''...not '' Allways''..
-
it's "All who is running", for sure..... i was one of the ones that ran from Jamaica!
in that era (1976), it was just really tough in Jamaica..... crime and violence, martial law aka Heavy Manners, economic crisis, etc. caused a lot of people (who had the ability) to leave. there was an even bigger song of the day called "I Man Born Yah" by Pluto Shervington that echoed the same sentiments. the irony was, Pluto left Jamaica for Miami shortly afterwards...

@mauricemunroe You are right the first time, "All who's running from Jamaica". Cause he's addressing those people directly.

I remeber buying this in high school on tape as a kid growing up in the 80's in the San Fernando Valley. Almost no one I grew up around listened to this music but me. I didn't have anyone to guide me; just had to take a chance on the music. When Noah was building his ark everyone laughed, but when the big flood came, they had to weep and moan.

Classic Lee Perry Black Ark Studio recording! I always thought the first line was "All Who is Running From Jamaica" as opposed to "Always running from Jamaica" ? Comments anyone -

So, pick your place for now before it's too late,
A look around round round round
Pick your place for now before you regret
When Noah was building his Ark, everyone laugh
but when the big flood came, they start to weep and moan...
Pick your place for now before it's too late, A look around
Pick your place for now before you regret, yeah-haa
