Down in Jamaica - Culture, Joseph Hill

Let’s talk about down, down, down

Down a diddy down

Down in Jamaica where Garvey come from

Let’s talk about down

Down a diddy down

Come a, come a down

Down in Jamaica where Garvey come from

Jah, I beg You send some rain down

Fine rain drops down

In Jamaica where he’s from

Earth’s greatest prophet was born

Down in Saint Ann’s bay

He was going about

Prophesying equal rights and justice

To the nation, I know

And because about that, they took him away

And told us black man he’s dead

But I weep not at all

For I know that one man

Just can’t dead and bury three times

Come on, black people, it’s always this

Let’s talk about down, down, down

Come a, come a down

Down in Jamaica where Garvey come from

Come a, come a, come

Let’s talk about down, down, down

Come a, come a down

Down in Jamaica where Garvey come from

For I weep not at all

For I know that one man

Just can’t dead and bury three time

I know they took him away

Man, they took him away

And told us, our black man is dead

Come on, black people, it’s always this

Let’s talk about down, down, down

Come a, come a down

Down in Jamaica where Garvey come from

Come a, come a, come

Let’s talk about down

Come a, come a down

Come a, come a down

Down in Jamaica where Garvey come from

History can tell about it

Down, come a, come a down

Come a, come a down

Down in Jamaica where Garvey come from

Several books written about it

Time after time

Down, come a, come a down

Come a, come a down

Down in Jamaica where Garvey come from
