Dave Matthews Band - Samurai Cop (Oh Joy Begin) Lyrics
The day you came
Naked, afraid
Your mother screams and pushes you
The day you came
Weak little thing
More precious there'll be nothing known
Oh joy begin
Let's not forget these early days
Remembering we begin the same
We lose our way in fear and hate
Oh joy begin
First just one step
With laughter single life begins
First just one step
Let's not forget these early days
Remembering we begin the same
We lose our way, in fear and hate
Oh joy begin
Innocent kiss
Black magic bliss
First broken bones, sudden and swift
Oh innocence
Let's not forget these early days
Remembering we begin the same
We lose our way in fear and hate
Oh joy begin
Oh joy begin
Oh joy begin

Dave Matthews Band Samurai Cop (Oh Joy Begin) Comments
🇮🇹 MUSiC.
So sad, This beautiful song will never get 1 minute of radio play.
You know, that is what makes it so great. It is just as bitter-sweet as this song. Its all OK
wow what a hoot, keep it up dave
4am got nothing in life but a sad song
where did 601 people come from to thumb this down! Maybe just slips of the fingers!?
0:00 Put down your sorrow friend. We've arrived.
Has Dave been circumsised?
Oooh, this song just feels so damn good.
Fucking Dave is the man; I saw him for the first time in 1995
So beautiful... ❤
I cried like a baby when the electric guitar rif started. It speaks on its own.
This is incredible. Beautiful beyond words.
Jesus Dave. Why must you crush it constantly ?
Ive been trying so long to look for this song and I finally found it, its so beautiful
he escuchado esta canción desde todos los dias desde hace 5 meses. esta por nacer mi hijo y me parece que está relacionada con el acontecimiento
Such a beautiful song! Makes me feel happy whenever I listen to it!
What does katakana mean?
this song makes me want to cry (I'm not a very emotional person so I never do cry) ugh it's so good
I first heard this in the hospital last week, holding my two day old baby. I cried and cried.
💙 DMB 💙 Like a fine wine, just gets better with time! 20 years later and still listening. 😍😍
I heard this song for the first time when my youngest girl was born and the lyrics just speak of birth and joy beginning. This video inspired a tattoo that I got for her. The balloon with the elephant on top of it!
Quiénes son los idiotas envidiozos q dieron deslike ... q manga d comemierdas hay en este planeta.
Carter might be one of the tightest drummers I’ve ever heard
who's still going to be listening in '2020'? ME!
This is the song for my son the song came out when I was pregnant with him ...its perfect I love it...
Carter is an absolute genius
I love you
Your music is awesome!
Please go out on sound cloud!
But what does Samurai Cop mean?
Our baby came on January 10th Dave. We tried to push her out on the 9th so you would both have the same birthday. This song will be with me till death. We love you DMB!!!
Okay, but why is it called 'Samurai Cop' ?
My wife absolutely loves this song!!! As do I!!

Super emotional. Super amazing
Great drummer's job! I've loved this song from the first note!
Searched the comments but can't figure out why its called Samurai Cop?? Read the lyrics too and its about babies... lol
It was a joke because when they were writing/finishing the song, the movie "Samurai Cop" was on TV and it stuck.
Still listening in 3027!
For Lissy. AKA Miss Lis. Forever and always, my sweet girl! 💕
Has anyone seen them since Tinsley was fired? Do they have a violinist?
I saw them four times last year. No violinist, but they added a keyboardist.
Oh joy begin! Season 8 on Fortnite is coming soon! 😂😂 Beautiful song btw
First time i heard this was in 2016 in VA Beach. It's become a top 15 favorite for me. Carter has such great rhythm.
I saw this song in concert last summer, DMB 2018 tour, they played at the gorge
I listen to Dave Matthews Band now makes me feel my age i remember driving to high school jamming DMB
Beautiful just beautiful song
Such a beautiful song. Amazing.
Heard it on Ellen show love it
This song makes me think of my wonderful daughter and makes me want to cry. Beautiful.
Never a disappointment! Been loving DMB before the turn of the 2000’s!
This is one of the best DMB songs I have ever heard. I was afraid DMB was gone, that it was starting to end. When I heard this song I knew DMB never went anywhere but up. Absolutely beautiful, thank you.
I'm here because my best friend liked DMB. I didn't really know that a DMB existed...not until I recognized the song 'Ants Marching' from the radio played in the school bus. I can't help but remember that time period...the bus driver named Penny in her late 20's who rested her LONG legs in 'Daisy Duke' shorts on the dashboard. I was always first on the bus to get the hell out of school. Anyway, my best friend died 5 years ago to complications of neurofibromatosis. I am forever grateful I found my brother and discovered some of the best music I've ever heard.
Thank you Dave Mathews and band, you brought more joy to my friend in pain then you'll ever know.
Not a damn word about why it's called samurai cop
He gave it a kooky title to get clicks.
Dave Matthews Band has a strong understanding of social media.
I love this song, lets make a change. Lets be joyous. God bless Thankyou Dave
First grandchild born 3-10-18, makes this song so much sweeter to me
Thanks for not starting them off on That Girl is You. :-)
this album is fire
What does it mean to you all when he says “we lose our way in fear and hate/pain”?
I think it means that although we begin the same, we will always find ourselves lost through pain. The gift of being an adult when we understand everything which causes us pain. The whole idea of knowledge brings us sorrow which makes us deviate from what we believed in when we we were young and so much of emotions
This song brings tears to my eyes as I think of my newborn daughter. “Oh joy begin” hits the nail on the head.
Se la rifan.
reminds me of one big holiday by mmj
great stuff
My son was just born today, and I also just heard this song today. I can't even function right now I'm so overcome with emotions!
not only is ha a great artist he is a great human being and gives so much back to those that dream like he once did back in charlottesville va
Not a song yet I haven't loved!
The drums...I'm shook
I wish I could attend at least one concert of this wonderful band.
You won't regret it - they put on the best shows & you'll hopefully get to hear the classics that made them popular in the first place!
Amazing Song!!
Greetings from Mexico.
It’s so easy to get lost in the melody and not even grasp the message of the lyrics. It’s such a beautiful mix of both. And it is just perfect for his voice. I was hesitant why it was the first song on the latest release but the more you listen to it especially after hearing it only live for years you understand why.
Song has nothing to do with the film of same name, 0/5 stars.
I heard the NPR Music tiny desk version first and that's my favorite.
Shoot! SHOOT HIM! Oh wait, wrong YouTube clip.
Dave Matthews is on the verge of being snubbed again for the Hall of zFame. His albums have beat Ms shits Gold Celine Dion, not to mention rappers like Kayne West, DMB fans shouldn’t stand for this horse-shit. I love Pearl Jam but Dave killed him both critically and commercial. There is no reason Dave shouldn’t be in the Hall. It sickens me to see a band that saved the music industry by showing them a model to make money without CD sales is being punished.
Drew Ostaszewski I’m pretty sure he isn’t even eligible until this year. Isn’t 25 years since first release the requirement?
This year's the first time they're eligible for inclusion. Their music is incredible, but their business model, as you pointed out, is revolutionary and makes it possible for bands to survive and thrive on their own. I hope they go in on the first ballot, because they deserve it.
Hall of Fame is crap anyway. Hell, Queen didn’t even get in til recently. Freddie Mercury was not in the R&R hall of fame for the longest time.....let that sink in. Lol.
420 long dog
Pure Awesomeness
One cannot top perfection...♥️♥️
I did not realize that I could love a song so much...
Just Dave and the boys..genius
This guy’s voice sounds like the late Chris Cornell.. makes me emotional every time I listen to it
Love the Baritone guitar tracks!
terrible song.
This song is awesome in all ways.
Love this song and the live versions too. Proud of DMB throughout the years. They have evolved their music and are still my all time favorite band.
Such a wonderful song. My family are huge dm fans and my mom changed this to her mother son wedding dance at the last second when it was released
Instantly Historic
Does anyone know if that's Brandi Carlile saying "Hello" at the end?
Robert Rose it’s very possible...
Anyone else get a pearl jam vibe?
Anyone else getting king of leon vibes ?
such powerful lyrics enough to bring a tear to the eye. we love you dave and company never stop making the best of what’s around
Keep on rocking Dave!!!
Why isnt this more popular?
the same
Heard this on the radio and i could not believe what i was hearing 👀
Lo amo.
This song sucks
love this song
