Jamaica Jamaica

Yes Jamaica is a land a full of adventure
Land of gold and sunshine and mi seh (?)
The famous? and the great?
Jamaica surround by Caribbean water
The Arawak Indian was the originator
Then the Spaniards, the English, and nuff more follow
I seh Christopher Colombus was a great founder
Born and grown down in Italy inna Geneva
Jah man him was di son of a wool weaver
But then him strive to become a sailor
Him travel for Spain, him was a navigator
Check King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella
Him get di pinta di Santa Maria
And two hundred men dem armed like soldier
Dem sort pon dem weapon dem want shoot a
Yes Columbus was di captain, was di ruler
Dem sail out a Spain across di blue water
Down in San Salvador, first dem discover
Continue their voyage, reach down inna Cuba
Inna 1494 dem reach down in Jamaica
A land inna a di place called Santa Gloria
I seh down inna di St. Anne's Bay area
But dey life ketch dem inna dry harbor
Because dem rush out? and run out of water
Dem dock up dey ship and fling out dem anchor
And tek out dem arms and invade di area
Hold on, stumble 'pon some Arawak warrior
Dem never lick a shot before an arrow dem a fiyah
Di chief a di master, him head full a feather
Columbus take over like a brave soldier
BIM! Block out di show an lick him one shooter
A mi seh little after that a bere shot start fiyah
And soon dem get a conquer inna Jamaica
And give all di riches to di Spain leader
Inna 1655 blood run like river
When di English fight di Spaniards and then take over
Inna 1658 it was a small disaster
Jah man it was total battle down a Rio Nueva
Inna 1659 we first civil governor
Edward D'Oyley him was a brave warrior
Him fight like a lion fi save Jamaica
Him never lose no war, man always conquer
Inna 1755, I-man still remember
Seh Kingston made di capital inna Jamaica
Mi know bout Jamaica (?)
Mi a guh tell yuh how much acre make up Jamaica
Mi seh 2.8 Million Acre
And you can drive from Kingston to Old Harbour
Santa Cruz, Savanna-la-Mar and then you touch Hanover
If yuh cyaa drive a junction yuh must a nova
