Cowboy
Lyrics
Honorable Marcus Garvey
So much love
That's all I come to give Emperor Selassie
Show dem love
And yet still dem nuh waan live so
Babylon gi dem a toy
See it deh inna dem hand?
Dem turn cowboy
Babylon seh destroy
Seh anytime now a pah-pah-poy oyy oyy
Babylon gi dem a toy
See it deh inna dem hand?
Dem turn cowboy
Babylon gi dem a toy
Anytime now a black a die, cho
Dem buss it up with violence
And nuff a dem kick di bucket
Selassie run di resident
So gun man watch it
Rastaman come strong with love inna di district
Yuh ah muss American with yuh gun pon yuh hip
Di cowboy dem still ah hype cause Bob him shot di sherrif
Commissioner ah run because we honor we commit
Unnuh nah no natural cow so yow
Cowboy guh down
Done know yuh bow yuh shot yuh bredda with yuh gun
Fi rights nor justice yuh nah buss it fi none
Well, since a slaughter Selassie come
Emperor sit down round di biggest machine gun
Mousselini test and get dead
Skull turn down
Babylon gi dem a toy
See it deh inna dem hand?
Dem turn cowboy
Babylon seh destroy
Seh anytime now a pah-pah-poy oyy oyy
Some skin bound to peel like scallion
Some a dem cyaan nyam dem meal comfortable and strong
Diss di Man weh fly di seal, done know yuh wrong
Rastaman nuh try no deal we nuh fear no wicked man
Shipment come inna drugs so dem a boast
Yow pon di front dem clap up and all a sport
Cyaan come 'gainst Jah Jah seed nor goat
Touch Lion den and we gwine fi buss yuh throat
Yuh nah go ah Africa den a weh yuh a run to?
Nah na na na nah nuh worry
Selassie see weh yuh do
Love and know Emmanuel, yuh never humble
Drop down a hell and a stress and trouble
Babylon gi dem a toy
See it deh inna dem hand?
Dem turn cowboy
Babylon seh destroy
Seh anytime now a pah-pah-poy oyy oyy
Dem yah journey yah I never srop trod it as Jah
Aun shine from above, ayyy
Those of whom, kick the bucket
And rob brothers and sisters
I surely love still I have to keep going on
I know not nothing of skylarking, ayyy
As long as Jah soil take the corn
I and I will be ruling, yeah
Babylon gi dem a toy
See it deh inna dem hand?
Dem turn cowboy
Babylon seh destroy
Seh anytime now a pah-pah-poy oyy oyy
