African postman, African postman, African postman, African postman,

Who bring I an' I an' I an' I an' I a telegram

Telegram whas's so int'resting

Is sent to all, to I an' I an' I as Africans

Telegram sayin' : "Sons and daughters of His Imperial Majesty

Haile Selassie, earth rightful ruler, without many apology say:

This is the time when I an' I an' I an' I an' I should come home, yes Jah

A come a holy folk (?)

Nah leggo, nah leggo....

Hang on, hang on .....

De postman a Africa...

African postman ....

Hang on, hang on .....
