歌詞方面

填詞作曲由Bob Marley

Could you be loved and be loved?
Could you be loved and be loved?

Don’t let them fool ya
Or even try to school ya! Oh, no!

We’ve got a mind of our own
So go to hell if what you’re thinking is not right!
Love would never leave us alone
Ay, in the darkness there must come out the light

Could you be loved and be loved?
Could you be loved, wo now, and be loved?

Love your brotherman
(Could you be, could you be, could you be loved?)
(Could you be, could you be loved?)
(Could you be, could you be, could you be loved?)
(Could you be, could you be loved?)

Don’t let them change ya, oh

Or even rearrange ya

Oh, no
We’ve got a life to live
They say, “Only, only
Only the fittest of the fittest shall survive”
Stay alive, eh

Could you be loved and be loved?
Could you be loved, wo now, and be loved?
