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
If you know your history
Then you would know where you coming from
Then you wouldn't have to ask me
Who the heck do I think I am
Said he was a Buffalo Soldier, Dreadlock Rasta
Buffalo Soldier in the heart of America
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
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
Chant: x2
Singing woy yoy yoy, woy yoy-yoy yoy,
Woy yoy yoy yoy, yoy yoy-yoy yoy!
Buffalo Soldier troddin' through the land, wo-ho-ooh
Said he wanna ran, then you wanna hand
Troddin' through the land, yea-hea, yea-ea
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 Caribbean
