Why Am I a Rastaman - Culture[00:00:00]

A big question posed to me daily on the street[00:00:03]

Many want to know the reason why[00:00:08]

I am a rastaman[00:00:11]

Many people see I many people ask I[00:00:14]

Why am I a rastaman[00:00:16]

Many people see I many people ask[00:00:19]

Why am I a rastaman[00:00:22]

It´s because[00:00:25]

Of the Babyloon[00:00:26]

And the situation[00:00:29]

It´s because[00:00:31]

Of the Babyloon[00:00:32]

And the situation[00:00:35]

When I was a boy about eight years old[00:00:37]

There was a certain rastaman[00:00:40]

And he love all the children[00:00:43]

And he treated us like a man[00:00:46]

Even the little children that no one cares for[00:00:49]

He called up everyone[00:00:52]

And he gave us food and treated everyone[00:00:55]

With a special love[00:00:59]

Many people see I many people ask I[00:01:01]

Why am I a rastaman[00:01:04]

But he taught I the love[00:01:07]

To give to everyone[00:01:10]

Many people see I many people ask I[00:01:13]

Why am I a rastaman[00:01:16]

There is no better way to express my love[00:01:19]

To each and everyone[00:01:22]

One Saturday morning[00:01:25]

A special thing happend to this man[00:01:28]

Here come Mr Babylon[00:01:31]

He take away the rastaman[00:01:33]

To the root of him herb[00:01:36]

And the meat of him fruit[00:01:38]

And throw it in a van[00:01:40]

And staight up brother for trillion years[00:01:42]

I never see the rastaman[00:01:45]

They took him to general penitentiary[00:01:48]

And send him back as a valid man[00:01:51]

But that could not change him his mind[00:01:54]

Was not in prison was only his body man[00:01:56]

Many people see I many people ask I[00:02:00]

Why am I a rastaman[00:02:03]

No matter how hard the battle be[00:02:06]

I still have jah in my hand[00:02:09]

Many people see I many people ask I[00:02:12]

Why am I a rastaman[00:02:15]

How sweet the name of jah jah song[00:02:18]

To every righteous rastaman[00:02:21]

Am the same old rastaman[00:02:24]

Told me pounds shilling and things[00:02:26]

Would come out of circulation[00:02:30]

And we would use a true bird man[00:02:32]

Now I have seen[00:02:35]

Seven years after that[00:02:37]

It was no use man[00:02:39]

Donkey horses and 'cross keeper[00:02:42]

Trooding upon he a penny man[00:02:45]

Everyone see I everyone ask I[00:02:48]

Why am I a rastaman[00:02:51]

Am here to prove and to testify[00:02:53]

About prophecy[00:02:56]

Everyone who see I everyone ask I[00:03:00]

Why am I a rastaman[00:03:02]

John the baptist Marcus Garvey and Christ[00:03:05]

They was a rastaman[00:03:08]

Everyone who see I everyone ask I[00:03:11]

Why am I a rastaman[00:03:14]

I vowed the vow of a Nazarite[00:03:17]

And I can´t be no otherwise man[00:03:19]

Everyone who see I everyone ask I[00:03:24]

Why am I a rastaman[00:03:26]

I love my brothers and I sisters[00:03:29]

And I can not give up a tall man[00:03:31]

Brother brown brother Chris brother John[00:03:36]

Brothers stand up man[00:03:38]

I use to hear them beat the drums and sing[00:03:40]

There in the forest land[00:03:44]

Everyone who see I everyone ask I[00:03:47]

Why am I a rastaman[00:03:50]

I love the beat[00:03:52]

Of the nayabinghi that call the creation[00:03:54]

Many people see I many people ask I[00:03:59]

Why am I a rastaman[00:04:01]

The truth is my friend[00:04:04]

There is no other righteous man[00:04:06]
