Woy yoy yoy, woy yoy-yoy yoy
Said he was a buffalo soldier, win the war for America
Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival
Troddin' through Jamaica, a buffalo soldier
Dreadie, woy yoy yoy, woy yoy-yoy yoy
Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival
Woy yoy yoy yoy, yoy yoy-yoy yoy
If you know your history
Buffalo soldier in the heart of America
I'm just a buffalo soldier in the heart of America
Stolen from Africa, brought to America
Said he was a buffalo soldier, dreadlock rasta
Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival
Woy yoy yoy yoy, yoy yoy-yoy yoy
Then you wouldn't have to ask me who the 'eck do I think I am
Then you would know where you're coming from
And he was taken from Africa, brought to America
Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival
To me it makes a lot of sense
Troddin' through San Juan in the arms of America
I mean it, when I analyze the stench
How the dreadlock rasta was the buffalo soldier
Singing, woy yoy yoy, woy yoy-yoy yoy
Woy yoy yoy, woy yoy-yoy yoy
Woy yoy yoy, woy yoy-yoy yoy
Woy yoy yoy yoy, yoy yoy-yoy yoy
Woy yoy yoy yoy, yoy yoy-yoy yoy
Said he wanna ran, and make you wanna hand
Driven from the mainland to the heart of the Caribbean
Buffalo soldier, dreadlock rasta
Buffalo soldier, dreadlock rasta
Woy yoy yoy yoy, yoy yoy-yoy yoy
Troddin' through the land, yea-hea, yea-ea
Woy yoy yoy, woy yoy-yoy yoy
Said he was a buffalo soldier, win the war for America
Said he was fighting on arrival, fighting for survival
Buffalo soldier troddin' through the land, wo-ho-ooh
Stolen from Africa, brought to America
