My Sound That Goes Around
Elevating Streets with Prince Buster's Sonic Resilience
Lyrics
Yes i was walkin
Walking and attentive to surroundings.
I heard a talkin
Heard someone talking, possibly advising.
Don't do it brother
A warning to a male figure not to take a certain action.
Don't do it sister
A similar warning, directed at a female figure.
You can't destroy my sound
Claiming ownership and resilience of "sound," likely musical expression.
It's my sound that goes around
Emphasizing the pervasive nature of his distinctive sound.
You hear the pipe riff of a beat
Noticing a distinct musical beat, possibly a reference to a signature instrument.
But girls will sing it on the street
Highlighting the popularity and public recognition of his music, especially among women.
You can't do it brother
Reiteration of the warning to a male not to interfere with his sound.
No You can't do it sister
Repeating the caution, this time directed at a female.
Got to learn my sound
An instruction to understand and appreciate his unique musical style.
It's my sound that goes around
Reaffirming the enduring and influential nature of his sound.
You hear the pipe riff of a beat
Reiteration of the distinct musical beat, with a focus on its appeal to women.
The girls will love it on the street
Underlining the positive reception of his sound, especially from female fans.
You can't do it brother
Restating the warning to a male not to tamper with his musical style.
You can't do it sister
Repeating the caution, this time directed at a female.
You can't destroy my sound
Emphasizing the resilience of his sound against attempts to undermine it.
