Chorus
Buffalo Soldier, Dreadlock Rasta
There was a Buffalo Soldier in the heart of America
Stolen from Africa, brought to America
Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival
Verse 1
I mean it, when I analyze the stench
To me it makes a lot of sense
How the Dreadlock Rasta
Was the Buffalo Soldier
Chorus
And he was taken from Africa, brought to America
Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival
Said he was a Buffalo Soldier, Dreadlock Rasta
Buffalo Soldier in the heart of America
Verse 2
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
{Chorus]
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 win the war for America
Chant
