Nice one there Iron. Can you tell us what does 'dungaree' mean?

It is basically blue jean material. In this lyrics it can literally mean people fighting over pants, or it could be used metaphorically to mean fighting over jobs, as dungaree has traditionally been strongly associated with working or work clothing.

2. The Abyssinians - South African Enlistment

At 1.35:
They took our land, they stole our gold
From the south of Africa
Enslaved the bold, controlled their souls
All this evil people in this Iwah!

[RasLeroy]

3. Yabby You - Free Africa

At 0.40:
Zambia! Mozambique
Guatemala, they all must be free

*And yeah, I know Guatemala isn't an African country but I'm pretty sure that's what he's singing!

Nice! Really strange (but funny!) that there is all of a sudden a South American country in it.

Removed Free Africa (Yabby You) from the list.

Added: Natty Never Get Weary (Culture) and Vampire (Peter Tosh). Check the first post!

4. Max Romeo - Cigarett
At 1.26:
It break your pocket and it burn your clothes
And make a chin of your nose
Then later down in life you see
You come down with the the ***big LC*** *(short for lung cancer)*

err, what does it mean to make a chin of your nose? He's saying makes a chimney of your nose, not a chin of your nose.

Flashman has a point there Survival. The "ney" is somewhat muffled after the "chim" in the song.

Hi,
Please forgive me if I'm wrong!
The Culture track sounds like 'Nailed to the possession'
