Freddie McGregor
Freddie McGregor (born 27 June 1956, Clarendon, Jamaica) has been variously a singer, musician and producer. His music career began when he was seven years old.
Biography
In 1963 he joined with Ernest Wilson and Peter Austin to form The Clarendonians, and began to record for the Studio One label. He was only seven years old at the time and was known as 'Little Freddie'. He was also a member of the Generation Gap.
McGregor converted to Rastafari in 1975. He is a member of the Twelve Tribes organisation.
McGregor worked with producer Niney the Observer during the late 1970s and early 1980s, and in the same period was part of the resurgence of Studio One. His popularity soared in the early 1980s with the release of "Bobby Bobylon". Other popular hits of McGregor's include "Big Ship", "Push Comes to Shove", "Just Don't Want to Be Lonely" (a top ten hit in the UK), and "I Was Born a Winner"; as well as cover versions of many early reggae standards. He has also worked with producers Junjo Lawes, Linval Thompson, and Gussie Clarke. McGregor has also recorded as a drummer with artists such as Sugar Minott and Judy Mowatt.

Signature
by: Freddie Mcgregor[intro]
Ooh yeah
There's so much I wanna say to you, yeah
Whoa, slow it down so I can say what I wanna say
[verse 1]
Shouldn't have to tell you how I feel
You know my loving is real
From the crown of my head to the sole of my feet
What is this that I feel, taking control of me
My body's in trouble, it's you that I need
[chorus 1]
This is how you walk
This is how you talk
Or this is how you smile
That makes me come alive
I wanna know what it is about you
[chorus 2]
Cause every little thing that I've been searching for
Girl I see it in you
You're my dream come true
Every single day, in every little way
Every single night I prey, that you'll be there for me
Cause I'll be there for you
[chorus 1]
[verse 2]
Can we go for a walk, and have a little talk
So I can get to know you
Got a lot of things to show you
Please understand, that I'm only your man
And my heart's getting stronger
Don't keep me waiting much longer
[bridge]
Ahh yeah,
Wanna get to know you better
[verse 1]
