Rastaman Lyrics - Bunny Wailer

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)
