Buffalo soldier, trodding through the land
Said you wanna run
And then you make a stand
Said he was a buffalo soldier
Win the war for America
Buffalo soldier, dread lock rasta
Figting on arrival, fighting for survival
Driven from the mainland
To the heart of the caribean

Singing WO YO YO etc as above

Trodding through San Juan
In the arms of America
Trodding through Jamaica
The buffalo soldier
Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival
Buffalo Soldier, dread lock rasta
