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
