Is like two grains of wheat for one bale of barley
(Who was a Rasta Man)
What a strange dread, dread earthquake one
The Rasta Man come from Zion
The Rasta Man come from Zion
(That's because he's a Rasta Man)
A hand-full of corn shall be on the hillside
Remember Jeremiah children
He carries a prophetical message
What a strange, dread-lock one
Having the mark of a Nazarine
It was Joshua who commanded the sun stand still
(That's because he's a Rasta Man)
(He was a Rasta Man)
What a dread, what a dread, what a whola one
Moses in the pit of mud
The Rasta Man, him come from Zion
He did that according to his Master's will
(He was a Rasta Man)
The Rasta Man come from Zion
Borning out of time and out of age
And with that you've got to be satisfied
(He was a Rasta Man)
(He was a Rasta Man)
(He was a Rasta Man)
(That's because he's a Rasta Man)
He prayed and the rains came again
What a dread-black, dread-lock one
Oh what a dread, dread whola one
The Rasta Man come from Zion
It was Elijha who prayed that it did not rain
What a dread, dread lightening one
(He was a Rasta Man)
The Rasta Man come from Zion
Or even Iziah
The Rasta Man come from Zion
Lightening
Them can't kill the Rasta Man at all
That's the strangest man I've seen
The Rasta Man come from Zion
Trodding from Buzrak with his garments dipped in blood
What a black, dread up-full one
Rasta Man a Lion
The Rasta Man come from Zion
What a dread, dread up-full one
What a strange, what a dread, but a up-full one
The Rasta Man come from Zion
What a strange, what a dread, but a righteous man
What a dread, dread whola one
Seven years years of famine for seven years of plenty
The Rasta come from Zion
(He was a Rasta Man)
(Oh what a Rasta Man) (repeat)
(That's because he's a Rasta Man)
