LYRICS

Them kill Limumba for his own-a-rights, But them can't kill the Rasta Man at all, 'tall, 'tall. Them can't kill the Rasta Man at all. That's the strangest man I've seen. (That's because he's a Rasta Man) Having the mark of a Nazarine. (That's because he's a Rasta Man) He carries a prophetical message. (That's because he's a Rasta Man) Borning out of time and out of age. (That's because he's a Rasta Man) The Rasta come from Zion. Rasta Man a Lion. (Oh what a Rasta Man) (repeat) Remember Jeremiah children. (He was a Rasta Man) Or even Iziah. (He was a Rasta Man) Moses in the pit of mud. (He was a Rasta Man) Trodding from Buzrak with his garments dipped in blood. (He was a Rasta Man) Oh what a dread, dread whola one, The Rasta Man come from Zion. What a strange, what a dread, but a righteous man, The Rasta Man, him come from Zion. What a dread, dread up-full one, The Rasta Man come from Zion. What a dread-black, dread-lock one, The Rasta Man come from Zion. Lightening! Seven years years of famine for seven years of plenty Is like two grains of wheat for one bale of barley. A hand-full of corn shall be on the hillside And with that you've got to be satisfied. It was Elijha who prayed that it did not rain. (He was a Rasta Man) He prayed and the rains came again. (He was a Rasta Man) It was Joshua who commanded the sun stand still. (He was a Rasta Man) He did that according to his Master's will. (Who was a Rasta Man) What a dread, dread whola one, The Rasta Man come from Zion. What a strange, what a dread, but a up-full one. The Rasta Man come from Zion. What a black, dread up-full one. The Rasta Man come from Zion. What a strange, dread-lock one. The Rasta Man come from Zion. What a dread, what a dread, what a whola one. The Rasta Man come from Zion. What a dread, dread lightening one. The Rasta Man come from Zion. What a strange dread, dread earthquake one. The Rasta Man come from Zion.
