D          D C D  G        G F G
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
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
