Capture Rasta lyrics with English Translations





Why, Rasta?
A the fuss I-man dem a see a man discover a land With all people 'pon it and sweet potato and cassava And all dem thing
Christopher Columbus, him come from Spain, sir When him sail him ship, then him come ah Jamaica Send go tell de Queen say him come-come discover But when mi tek a stock, there was Red Indian
Him ah boooast - say him capture Rasta Him gone-gone boooast - say him capture Rasta
Afterward mi check it out, him turn back ah Africa Load the ship with human cargo Come back and start to work up the cane field Kill out the cassava and potato
An' ah boooast - say him capture Rasta (wha' im seh?) An' ah boooast - say him capture Rasta
The next time they see him, them send fi the barber Say that them come fi trim up the Rasta Trim first and then them ask question But when me tek a stock, ah Armageddon
Dem a boooast - say dem capture Rasta (wha' that!) An' start to boooast - say dem capture Rasta (Heh! Watch dis!)


When mi tek a stock him come inna the land, sir See mi ah Negril, grandfather Rasta With mi grey beard and mi challwah Him mash up the kutchie and him gon' ah Campion
Gone boooast, say him capture Rasta (what a sinting!) Gone boooast, say him capture Rasta
The first semi-aircraft gun was made by Carlton ?? was a black American And them tek it weh and gone mek M16 Give it to black man fi shoot one another
An' a boast, say dem capture Rasta Dem a boast, say dem capture Rasta
If ah piece of cloth, why dem call it rattan? Dolly an' lick-shot an' water pumpy When mi tek a stock, that's not our unity Among the children in our community
Dem a boast, say dem capture Rasta Dem boast, say dem capture Rasta
Some black man say them drop off ah Trinidad The other black man drop ah Antigua The big stake them drop ah Jamaica Because I and I, we come fi conquer
Dem cyann't boooast - say dem capture Rasta Dem cannot boooast - say dem capture Rasta (yuh ah hear?)
Dis ya Rastaman him nuh licky dreadlocks Dis ya Rastaman him nuh licky licky dreadlocks Den can't catch me wid no rice and peas and meat, sir When me come me come, de Rasta cook him ital
Dem cyaan't boast, say dem capture Rasta Dem cannot boast, say dem capture Rasta
