Buffalo Soldier, Dreadlock Rasta:
There 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 'eck 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.
