Yes mi bredda Winston Rodney!

The boy we waan see long time

Christopher Columbus, we catch him

We hold him pon vibes

Them never want Christopher Columbus in a Italy

Them never want Christopher Columbus in a Rome

So how come him down in a West Indies land — A bother we

So how come him down in a West Indies land — A bother we

Them never want Christopher Columbus in a Italy

Them never want old Christopher Columbus in a Rome

How come in a West Indies land a ravish my home

How come the boy come down to claim my home

He came to the West Indies land and saw us on the plantation

Trying hard to work and support and feed our generation

Then he came and took out his Pirate sword

And own everything by the jiffy of a word

Thief!

Them never want Christopher Columbus in a Italy

(Neither in a Spain)

Them never want Christopher Columbus in a Genoa

Then how come him come down here with boy Three Finger Jack

Come kick out Rastaman and West Indians off the rock

You think a so Christopher

Think we ago give up easily?

He came and start to feed the people again

And not a word of justice could be said

When I look, things upon the land start run red

And the later generation African we affe turn natty dread

Them never want Christopher Columbus in a Italy

Them never want Christopher Columbus in a Italy

(Then tell I something)

Then how come him down in a West Indies land — A bother we

Then how come him down in a West Indies land — A bother we

Came and rob us all of our Gold

Rape our sons and daughters at nine years old

Straight after that we can’t get no good times fi roll

And our wild animals and our speech and culture is cold

Them never want Christopher Columbus in a Italy

Them never want Christopher Columbus in a Italy

Then how come him down in a West Indies land — A bother we

(Tell me man)

Then how come him down in a West Indies land — A bother we

How come him down in a West Indies land — A follow we

And everything we working take it away from us

Them never want Christopher Columbus in a Italy

Them never want Christopher Columbus in a Italy
