This a follow up to the single “54-46 That’s My Number” which was released in celebration of Toot’s release and the lyrics describe Toots' time in prison for an arrest for possession of marijuana.
It later transpired that he had been set up by a promoter.
This turned out to be a massive reggae hit for Toots and The Maytals and without the injustice of Toots Hibbert’s arrest, this song would not have been.
