Duppy Conqueror Lyrics

Yes, me friend,

 We deh a street again.

 Yes, me friend, me good friend,

 Dem say we 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-I,

 They've got to turn me loose.

 

 O-o-oh! O-o-ooh! Oh! Don't try to cold me up 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. O-oh!

 Yes, me friend, me good friend,

 Dem say we free again. Oh! Oh!

 

 So don't try to cold me up 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, ... [fadeout]
