  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 analyse  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 your coming from
 Then you wouldnt  have to ask me_
 Who the heck  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
  Said he, woe  yoe yoe,woe woe yoe yoe
  Woe  yoe yoe yo,yo yo yo yo
  Woe  yoe yoe,woe woe yoe yoe
  Woe  yoe yoe yo,yo yo yo yo
  Buffalo  Soldier
  Trodding through the land
  Said he wanna ran
  Then  you wanna hand
  Trodding through the land,yea,yea
  Said  he was a Buffalo  Soldier
  Win the war for  America
  Buffalo  Soldier,Dreadlock  Rasta
  Fighting  on arrival,fighting  for survival
  Driven  from the mainland
  To  the heart of the Carribean
  Singing,woe  yoe yoe,woe woe yoe yoe
  Woe  yoe yoe yo,yo yo yo yo
  Woe  yoe yoe,woe woe yoe yoe
  Woe  yoe yoe yo,yo yo yo yo
  Trodding  through San Juan
  In  the arms of America
  Trodding  through Jamaica,a Buffalo Soldier
  Fighting  on arrival,fighting  for survival
  Buffalo  Soldier,Dreadlock  Rasta
 Woe yoe  yoe,woe woe yoe yoe
  Woe  yoe yoe yo,yo yo yo yo
  Woe  yoe yoe,woe woe yoe yoe
  Woe  yoe yoe yo,yo yo yo yo
