Judge Not
"Judge Not" is the first single Bob Marley recorded. It was released in 1962, only in Jamaica on Leslie Kong label Beverley's. With a ska beat, Marley has a youthful voice, as it was his first recorded song. Though "Judge Not" failed to achieve much success, Marley was not discouraged and continued to record music. "Judge Not" was rereleased in the Songs of Freedom album in 1992 as well as other compilations. The song was also covered by Sublime, and can be found on the box set Everything Under the Sun.
The song is about morality, and may have been based on the Biblical quote "Judge not lest ye be judged". Some of the song lyrics are paraphrased in the background vocals of the later Marley hit "Could You Be Loved".

Judge not
by: Bob MarleyDon't you look at me so smug
And say I'm going bad
Who are you to judge me
And the life that I live?
I know that I'm not perfect
And that I don't claim to be
So before you point your fingers
Be sure your hands are clean
Judge not
Before you judge yourself
Judge not
If you're not ready for judgement-Woah oh oh!
The boat of life is rocking
And you may stumble too
So while you talk about me,
someone else is judging you
Judge not
Before you judge yourself
Judge Not
If you're not ready for judgement-Woah oh oh!
The boat of life is rocking
And you may stumble too
So while you talk about me
Someone else is judging you (Repeat 4x)
