Toy gun, when the youth dem grow up
Seh dem want the real one
Go a town and fiyah shot a bam-bam-bam
Happen when you gi(ve) the little youth toy gun

Johnny grow up in the ghetto
Johnny had to survive
Some time(s) fiyah shot
Just to stay alive
One day Johnny luck run leave Johnny dry
Johnny mother gone a funeral
Just a bawl out her eye

Repeat Chorus - "Toy gun, when the youth dem grow up…"

Put down the gun youth, put down the gun
Put down the gun and get an education
When you kill one another dat a Babylon plan
Crips and Bloods you got to overstand

Repeat Chorus - "Toy gun, when the youth dem grow up…"

JAH Rastafari up in Heaven mek the birds and the bees
While man mek gun and kill for money
Some fiyah magnum, some fiyah Remington
Peace on earth, every youth's a Rastaman

Repeat Chorus - "Toy gun, when the youth dem grow up…"
Repeat Bridge - "Put down the gun youth, put down the gun…"
Repeat Chorus -"Toy gun, when the youth dem grow up…"

Put down the gun youth, put down the gun
Put down the gun and get a(n) education
When you kill one another dat a Babylon plan
Rema and Tivoli got to overstand

Repeat Chorus - "Toy gun, when the youth dem grow up…"
