Deep down south in the thick boondocks
There lived this boy named Nick Bob Cox
Today was daddy's special day for him
He brought home, son's first violin
And now Pappy said, "Young boy, make me proud
You learn a song and you play it loud
This country music should come deep within
So sit down boy and let's begin"
Now here's the fiddle and there's the bow
Son shook his head and said, "Pappy, no!"
What is it, boy? Are you feeling sick?
Nick Bob said, "With all respect
I need more soul with my music
I got to have, reggae, reggae music
I don't need no countryman fiddle
I need a real cool sound"
Now Pappy got mad but he did not shout
He said, "Now, what's this sound you're speaking 'bout?"
So, Nick Bob left, came back with a radio
And said, "Now here's something Pappy you gotta know
Some heavy drums and some heavy bass
And that social message to set that face"
And then Pappy got up, he began to move
He said, "I feel it son I feel the groove"
And soon he sang, "We need more soul with my music
We got to have reggae, reggae music (ha)
We don't need no countryman fiddle
We need a real cool sound"
We need more soul with the music (come-on)
We got to have, to have reggae, reggae music (yeah)
We don't need no countryman fiddle
We need a real cool sound (just like that)
♪
And now Pappy liked what sound filled the room
But it'd be better if the bass would boom
So, go out to the shed, get the hammer nails and wood
'Cause we're gonna make this reggae sound as it should
Went by as they worked non-stop
Two masterminds in the game, wood shop
The sound system they built, it played no joke
So they brought it out to show all the country folks
We need more soul with my music (yeah)
We got to have, to have reggae, reggae music (whoa)
We don't need no countryman fiddle
We need a real cool sound
We need more soul with my music (come-on)
We got to have, to have reggae, reggae music (like it man)
We don't need no countryman fiddle
We need a real cool sound
(Soul with my music)
(Reggae, reggae music)
We don't need no countryman fiddle
We need a real cool sound
