Buffalo Soldier
Dreadlocked Rasta'
There was a Buffalo Soldier
In the heart of America
Stolen from Africa
Brought to America
Fighting on arrival
Fighting for survival
I mean it
When I analyze the stench
To me, it makes a lot of sense
How the dreadlocked Rasta'
Was a Buffalo Soldier
And he was taken from Africa
Brought to America
Fighting on arrival
Fighting for survival
Said it was a Buffalo Soldier
Dreadlocked Rasta'
Buffalo Soldier
In the heart of America
If you know your history
Then you would know where you're coming from
Then you wouldn't have to ask me
Who the heck do I think I am
I'm just a Buffalo Soldier
In the heart of America
Stolen from Africa
Brought to America
Said he was fighting on arrival
Fighting for survival
Said he was a Buffalo Soldier
In the war for America

Trodding through the land, yeah
Said he was a Buffalo Soldier
In the war for America
