Jamaica Jamaica |
| Now special request to all tourist |
| Who livin' in Canada, America or livin in a forrest |
| This stuff |
| Fa, me say, easy mister Cat, and me say, easy my man |
| Easy mister Cat, and I say, easy my man |
| An' everywhere you go, you want di DJ done |
| Jamaica, Jamaica, guh-lang, guh-lang |
| Jamaica, Jamaica, che-ri-bim-bang |
| Yes, Jamaica is a land a full of adventure |
| Land of gold and sunshine and, me seh, |
| The famous and the great observer |
| Jamaica surround by Caribbean water |
| Arawak Indian was the originator |
| Then the Spaniards, the English, and nuff more follow |
| I seh, Christopher Columbus was a great founder |
| Born and grown dung a Italy inna Geneva |
| Jah man, him was di son of a wool weaver |
| But then him strive to become a sailor |
| Him then travel for Spain, him was a navigator |
| To King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella |
| Him get di pinta di Santa Maria |
| And two hundred men armed like soldier |
| Dem sort pon dem weapon, dem want shoot a |
| Yes, Columbus was di captain, was di ruler |
| Dem sail out a Spain across di blue water |
| Down in San Salvador, first dem discover |
| Continue their voyage, reach down inna Cuba |
| Inna 1494 dem reach inna Jamaica |
| A land inna a di place called Santa Gloria |
| I seh, down inna di St. Anne’s Bay area |
| But they life catch dem inna dry harbor |
| Because dem run shotta out and run out of water |
| Dem affi dock up dem ship and fling out dem anchor |
| And take out dem arms and invade di area |
| Hold on, stumble 'pon some Arawak warrior |
| Fa dem never lick a shot, bow an arrow dem a fiyah |
| Di chief a di master, him head full a feather |
| Columbus take over like a brave soldier (bim) |
| Block out di show an lick him one shooter |
| A, me seh, little after that a pure shot start fiyah |
| And soon dem get a conquer inna Jamaica |
| And give all di riches to di Spain leader |
| Inna 1655 blood run like river |
| When di English fight di Spaniards and then take over |
| Inna 1658 it was a small disaster |
| Seh, it was total battle down a Rio Nueva |
| Inna 1659 first civil governor |
| Edward D’Oyley, him was a brave warrior |
| Him fight like a lion, fi save Jamaica |
| Him never lose no war, man always conquer |
| Inna 1755, I-man still remember |
| Seh, Kingston turn di capital fi Jamaica |
| Me know 'bout Jamaica |
| Me a go tell you how much acre make up Jamaica |
| Me seh, two point eight million acre |
| And you can drive from Kingston to Old Harbour |
| Santa Cruz, Savanna-la-Mar and you touch Hanover |
| If you cyaan drive a junction, you must a nova |
| Barry G a we greatest, dread di entertainer |
| Jamaica, Jamaica, guh-lang, guh-lang |
| Jamaica, Jamaica, che-ri-bim-bang |
| Jamaica, Jamaica, guh-lang, guh-lang |
| I said, Jamaica is a land a full of adventure |
| Land of gold and sunshine and, I seh, |
| The famous and the great observer |
| Jamaica surround by Caribbean water |
| Go take it from di Cat, pure back rider |
| And everywhere me go, me affi preach culture |
| Me na go leave from Jamaica fi live America |
| Na leave from Jamaica fi live a Canada |
| 'Cause if me a go leave me a go to Africa |
| Me live inna Jamaica, me feel warmer |
| A when me go a foreign cool lot a breeze |
| A some a dem a tell you bout Jah Jah winter |
| Go bless Super Cat a nice up di area |
| Jamaica, Jamaica, guh-lang, guh-lang |
| Jamaica, Jamaica, che-ri-bim-bang |
