Lyrics Independent Jamaica - Lord Creator

Independent Jamaica

Jamaica getting their independence
And everyone is happy
So I will now tell the story
And please listen carefully
Manley called up a referendum
For you to make your own decision
So the people voted wisely, now everyone is happy
That there’s no more federation
Now, independence is good for the young and the old
Also for me and you
Yes, independence is great for the whole population
Including Yorkshirean too
So I believe that if we try our best
It will be a great success
So let us live in unity
For progress and prosperity
Let’s go Independent Jamaica
Manley went up to England
To seek for independence
And although Busta was late
He still attend the big conference
Although from two different parties
It was very good to see
How these two politicians were shaking hands
When they gained victory
Now, independence is good for the young and the old
Also for me and you
Yes, independence is great for the whole population
Including Yorkshirean too
So I believe that if we try our best
It will be a great success
So let us live in unity
For progress and prosperity
Swing it, daddy
These two men came from England
They came the very same day
On two different planes
That stopped at Montego Bay
They separated back down to Kingston
But still we are very pleased
For they got independence, so let’s rejoice
They’ll be the first in the West Indies
Now, independence is good for the young and the old
Also for me and you
Yes, independence is great for the whole population
Including Yorkshirean too
So I believe that if we try our best
It will be a great success
So let us live in unity
For progress and prosperity
Swing it, daddy
