Buffalo soldier, dreadlocks rasta
There was a Buffalo soldier, In the heart of America
Stolen from Africa, brought to America
Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival
If you know your history
Then you would know where you coming from
Then you wouldn't have to ask me
Who the heck do I think I am
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
