No need - no need to get jumpy;
No need and-a no need to get bumpy,
And-a no need - and-a no need to get bumpy;
No nee-nee-nee-nee-nee-nee-nee-need to get jumpy!
Cool runnings; can you dig it?
Cool runnings; yeah, one more time! A-beg ya:
Cool runnings; can you stop it?
Cool runnings:
Spread out, spread out, Spread out, spread out.
Tell you about the Blackman Redemption; can you dig it? (Oh, yeah!)
A Blackman Redemption; can you stop it? Oh, no! Oh, no! Oh, no!

No need - no need - no need to get jumpy,
And-a no need - and-a no need to walk away.
Let me tell bout ya:
Cool runnings, can you dig it?
Cool runnings: it's one more time we want it;
Cool runnings;
Cool runnings;
Spread out, spread out, Spread out, spread out,
Spread out. Spread out, spread out. Spread out, spread out.
It's just-a Blackman Redemption ...
