0-0-7, 0-0-7
At ocean eleven
And now rude boys have a go wail
'Cause them out of jail
Rude boys cannot fail
'Cause them must get bail

Dem a loot, dem a shoot, dem a wail (a shanty town)
Dem a loot, dem a shoot, dem a wail (a shanty town)
Dem rude boys get a probation (a shanty town)
And rude boy bomb up the town (a shanty town)

0-0-7, 0-0-7
At ocean eleven
And the rude boys a go wail
'Cause them out of jail
Rude boys cannot fail
'Cause them must get bail

Dem a loot, dem a shoot, dem a wail (a shanty town)
Dem a loot, dem a shoot, dem a wail (a shanty town)
Dem rude boys get a probation (a shanty town)
And rude boy bomb up the town (a shanty town)

Police get taller (a shanty town)
Soldier get longer (a shanty town)
Rude boy a weep and a wail (a shanty town)
Rude boy a weep and a wail (a shanty town)
0-0-7, 0-0-7
En el océano once
Y ahora los chicos rudos se lamentan
Porque los sacaron de la cárcel
Los chicos rudos no pueden fallar
Porque deben conseguir la libertad bajo fianza

Son un botín, son un disparo, son un lamento (un barrio de chabolas)
Son un botín, son un disparo, son un lamento (un barrio de chabolas)
Los chicos groseros obtienen libertad condicional (un barrio de chabolas)
Y un chico grosero bombardea la ciudad (un barrio de chabolas)

Son un botín, son un disparo, son un lamento (un barrio de chabolas)
Los chicos groseros obtienen libertad condicional (un barrio de chabolas)
Y un chico grosero bombardea la ciudad (un barrio de chabolas)

La policía se hace más alta (un barrio de chabolas)
Soldado se hace más largo (un barrio de chabolas)
Chico grosero, un llanto y un gemido (un barrio de chabolas)
Chico grosero, un llanto y un gemido (un barrio de chabolas)
