Verse 3:
Is it contagious
Is it outrageous
Is it vicious
Or is it dangerous

Chorus:
Inna mi bones
Inna me blood
From my toes
Up to my brain
I can feel it inna my bones
Inna my ankle
From my toes
Up to my brain
Is it incurable
It's fit for desirable
It isn't curable
Fit for desirable
I have it inna my toes
Inna my ankles
Inna my knees
Up to my waist
Under mi ribs
Across mi shoulder
Inna mi finger
Up to my brain

Reggaemylitis I say...
Reggaemylitis I say...
You only catch it one way
It's reggaemylitis I say

Verse 4:
Sometimes your temperature
It really gets higher
And the music
Sets your soul on fire

Last Chorus:
Got it inna my toes
Inna my knees
Inna my ankles
Inna my waist
Inna my heart
Inna my soul
Inna my mind
Come through my mouth
Inna my finger
Registered in my brain
