Bob Marley & The Wailers - Duppy Conqueror
We deh a street again
Yes, me friend, me good friend
Dem say we're free again
The bars could not hold me
Force could not control me now
They try to keep me down, yeah
But Jah put I around - yeah
Yes, I've been accused many a times
And wrongly abused, now - oh
But through the powers of the Most High
They've got to turn me loose
O-oh! O-o-ooh! Oh!
Don't try to cut me off on this bridge, now
I've got to reach Mount Zion, the highest region
So if you a bull-bucka, let me tell you this
I'm a duppy conqueror - conqueror, oh, yeah
Yes, me friend, me good friend
We deh a street again - oh
Yes, me friend, me good friend
Dem say we free again- oh, oh
So don't try to cut me off on this bridge, now
I've got to reach Mount Zion, the highest region
So if you a bull-bucka, let me tell you this
I'm a duppy conqueror, conqueror, oh, yeah
Yes, me friend
Dem say we free again, oh, oh, yeah
Yes, me friend
Dem set we free again, oh
Yes, me friend, me good friend
We deh a street again..
