Buffalo Soldier

Buffalo Soldier

Dreadlock Rasta

It was a Buffalo Soldier

In the heart of America

Stolen from Africa

Brought to America

Fighting on arrival

Fighting for survival

I mean it

When I analyze the stench

To me it makes a lot of sense

How the Dreadlock Rasta

Was the Buffalo Soldier

And he was taken from Africa

Brought to America

Fighting on arrival

Fighting for survival

Said he was a Buffalo Soldier

Dreadlock Rasta

Buffalo Soldier

In the heart of America

If you know your history

Then you would know where you coming from

Then you wouldn't have to ask me

Who the heck do I think I am?

I'm just a Buffalo Soldier

In the heart of America

Stolen from Africa

Brought to America

Said he was fighting on arrival

Fighting for survival

Said he was a Buffalo Soldier

Win the war for America

Said he

Troddin' through the land, wo-ho-ooh

And make you wanna hang

Said, he was a Buffalo Soldier

Win the war for America

Dreadlock Rasta

Fighting on arrival

Fighting for survival

Driven from the mainland

To the heart of the Caribbean
