This lyric contains biblical references. Click here to show the references.

Them kill Limumba for his own own-a-rights
But them can't kill the Rastaman at all, 't all, 't all
Them can't kill the Rastaman at all

That's the strangest man I've seen
(that's because he's a Rastaman)
Having the mark of a Nazarene
(That's because he's a Rastaman)
He carries a prophetical message
(That's because he's a Rastaman)
Borning out of time and out of age
(That's because he's a Rastaman)
Judges 13:5; Judg. 16:17; Matthew 2:23


The Rasta come from Zion, Rastaman a Lion!
Dread dread (the Rastaman)
The Rasta come from Zion, Rastaman a Lion!
Him irie (the Rastaman)

Remember Jeremiah children (he was a Rastaman)
Or even Isaiah (he was a Rastaman)
Moses in the pit of mud (he was a Rastaman)
Trodding from Buzrak, with his garments dipped in blood
Genesis 37:23-24; Gen. 37:31; Isaiah 63:1

(He was a Rastaman)

Oh what a dread, dread, whola one
The Rastaman come from Zion
What a strange, what a dread, what a righteous man
The Rastaman him come from Zion
What a dread, dread up-full one
The Rastaman come from Zion
What a dread, black, dreadlock one
The Rastaman come from Zion

Lightning!
Seven years of famine for seven years of plenty
Genesis 41:29-30

Is like two grains of wheat for one bale of barley
2 Kings 7:1

A hand full of corn shall be on the hillside
And with that you've got to be satisfied

It was Elijha who prayed that it did not rain (he was a Rastaman)
He prayed and the rains came again (he was a Rastaman)
1 Kings 17:1; 1 Kings 18:1; James 5:17

It was Joshua who commanded the sun stand still
Joshua 10:12-13

(He was a Rastaman)
He did that according to his Master's will (he was a Rastaman)

What a dread, dread whola one
The Rastaman come from Zion
What a strange, what a dread, what a up-full one
The Rastaman come from Zion
What a black, dread, up-full one
The Rastaman come from Zion
What a strange, dreadlock one
The Rastaman come from Zion
