Gregory Isaacs - Substitute Lyrics

Still listening 2019 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🎸🎸🎸🎸😊😊😊

Susan told me to leave saying she a woman whose cute all of a sudden she said she found a substitute but all am saying i still be around... big tune👊

Surely the Irie Love Song Specialist ...

Am just letting you know that am still around I'll be your bridge over troubled water so you won't get drowned😍😍

Substitutes can truly put one down.

((((((Stereophonic)))))))

The instruments are on the next level.

Love this vibe fam...

Currently going through family hurts, laying in bed awake listening to this soothing my soul.

💋💋👏👏👏👏👏👍

Im from Uk england, big love to all humans that enjoy raggae vibes! 1 ❤ your all beautiful that see this comment x❤X❤X❤

Heard this as a kid on LP 45 in Sierra Leone @ 14c Syke Street Freetown. I just stumbled on to it for the 1st time in like 30 years. And like all good songs you hear when young the lyrics stick and just come back like it was only yesterday.

No one touches this these days.

They don't remotely even come in the ballpark.

Love love love it

Lyrics

Suzan told me to leave
Saying she's a woman who’s cute
All of a sudden she said she found a substitute
But I'm just letting you know that I'll be around
I'll be your bridge over troubled waters
So you won’t get drown
Cause Your substitute's gonna put you down..[alright]
I heard you're smoking cigarettes by the pack
Since you told me to leave and don’t come back [yeah]
It wasn't my fault
You were the one who said we're through
Now you're drinking liquor
Which you didn't do
But I'll be around
So you won't get drown
Cause your substitute's gonna put you down...
Whenever time you're in trouble [alright]
Just call my name and I'll be on the double..
So you won't get drowned
Cause your substitute's gonna put you down...
But I'llbe around
Yes I'll be around.. etc, etc

Substitute Wana put you down
