Oh Dbumbo klaatD, Coh DraGs klaatG  F  G  
Oh bumbo klaat, oh ras klaat
GI said I came Dupon this land
CTo guide and teach my Gfellow man
BGut one thing I can't Doverstand
Is Cwhy them don't love his Gbrother man
Oh bumbo klaat, oh ras klaat
Oh bumbo klaat, oh ras klaat
Sometimes I sit and look around
And listen to the daily sound
But when I check, there's so much lies
And that's the reason why the children cry
Oh bumbo klaat, oh ras klaat
Oh bumbo klaat, oh ras klaat
It's been so long, we need a change
So the shitstem we got to rearrange
And if there's obstacles in the road, 
we got to throw them overboard
Oh bumbo klaat, oh ras klaat
Oh bumbo klaat, oh ras klaat
One night, an evil spirit held me down
I could not make one single sound
Jah told me, 'Son, use the word'
And now I'm as free as a bird
Oh bumbo klaat, oh ras klaat
Oh bumbo klaat, oh ras klaat
Oh bumbo klaat, oh ras klaat
Oh bumbo klaat, oh ras klaat
Oh bumbo klaat, oh ras klaat
Oh bumbo klaat, oh ras klaat
Oh bumbo klaat, oh ras klaat
Oh bumbo klaat, oh ras klaat

Oh bumbo klaat, oh ras klaat

G D

I said I came upon this land

C G

To guide and teach my fellow man

G D

But one thing I can't overstand

C G

Is why them don't love his brother man

Oh bumbo klaat, oh ras klaat

Sometimes I sit and look around

And listen to the daily sound

But when I check, there's so much lies

And that's the reason why the children cry

Oh bumbo klaat, oh ras klaat

It's been so long, we need a change

So the shitstem we got to rearrange

And if there's obstacles in the road,

we got to throw them overboard

Oh bumbo klaat, oh ras klaat

One night, an evil spirit held me down

I could not make one single sound

Jah told me, 'Son, use the word'

And now I'm as free as a bird

Oh bumbo klaat, oh ras klaat
