Blackman Land

[Intro]
Man, oh man
I wanted to give you your basical pretential towards Rastafari
Mount Zion is I an' I home
Well, watch out, man!

[Chorus]
Ethiopia; Now stretched forth her hands
Ethiopia; A black man land

[Verse 1]
By the rivers of babylon's, I an' I sat down
An' there I wept tears from my eye when I remember Mount Zion high
Wicked has take us away captivity
An' require service from us, a song into a strange land
How can I an' I sing King Alpha's song into a strange land?
There is no peace, pure war
Man, I want to give you your basical pretential towards Rastafari

[Bridge]
Lord is I an' I shepherd
I an' I shall get immediate high to lay down in green herbs
He leadeth I in the path of righteousness for his namesake
May do I walk in di valley of shadow of death
I an' I will fear no foe (Well, watch out, man!)

[Chorus]
Forget your pride
Give Jah Jah the praise
Ethiopia

[Verse 2]
Wicked guy speak words smooth as butter
But yet war was in his heart an' dat a bad tar
I an' I fi live in love an' unity
Discipline is a principal thing, therefore get discipline
An' etiquette shall be added unto thee
By the rivers of Babylon I an' I sat down
And wept tears from my eye when I remembered Mount Zion high
Zion high for I an' I, you know?

[Post-Verse]
Wicked man have take us away captivity
An' require from us a song into a strange-strange land
But how can I an' I sing King Alpha song into a strange land?

[Chorus]
Ethiopia; Ethiopia

[Outro]
Mount Zion is an holy place
No wicked man can not enter there
No wicked, no wicked man (No-no-no)
No wicked man can not enter Mount Zion high (Yeah)
Ethiopia
