2. 
What I've got you got to get it put it in you 
What I've got you got to get it put it in you 
What I've got you got to get it put it in you 
Reeling with the feeling don't stop continue 
3. 
Realize I don't want to be a miser 
Confide with sly you'll be the miser 
Young blood is the lovin' upriser 
How come everybody wanna keep it like the kaiser

Lyric 

Greedy little people in a sea of distress 
keep ypur more to recieve your less 
unimpressed by material excess 
Love is free love me say hell yes 

I'm a low brow but i Rock a little know how 
No time for thepiggies or the hoosegow 
get smart get down with the pow wow 
Never been a better time than right now. 

Bob marley poet and a prophet 
Bob marley taught me how to off it 
Bob Marley walkin' like he talk it 
Goodness me can't you see I'm gonna cough it

This part is played on a tape and recorded backwards into the cd. 
So what ever you do, it won't sound like the album version, but you may try to  
Listen to a live version and adopt the live-sound instead.:) good luck! 
I garanty that this solo is absolutly perfect tabbed according to the record.

I'm not that sure about the second solo, but atleast I gave it a try. 
The reputations of hammering and pulling is not ment as correct nummbers, but only as an indication. This one is also recorded backwards.
