My roots I'll never forget,

I'll always remember the road I travel.

My roots I'll never forget,

I'll always remember the road I travel.

I've traveled all over, thru the works of Jah, Jah.

One thing I know for sure. My roots I'll never forget,

I'll always remember the road I travel.

My roots I'll never forget,

I'll always remember the road I travel.

Europe I travel.

England I travel,

America I travel. I travel, I travel.

My roots I'll never forget,

I'll always remember the road I travel.

My roots I'll never forget,

I'll always remember the road I travel.

How can I forget my roots. How can I?

How can I forget my roots, how can I?

My roots, my roots, my roots, my roots.

My roots I'll never forget,

I'll always remember the road I travel.

My roots I'll never forget,

I'll always remember the road I travel.

I've been all over thru the works of Jah, Jah.

One thing I know for sure,

My roots I'll never forget

I'll always remember the road I travel

My roots I'll never forget,

I'll always remember the road I travel.

Oh, my roots. My history, talk about my culture,

Oh yes my people.

My roots I'll never forget,

I'll always remember the road I travel.

My roots I'll never forget,

I'll always remember the road I travel.

My roots I'll never forget,

I'll always remember the road I travel.

My roots, Jah roots, good roots, strong roots.

I travel, I travel, I travel, I travel.

My roots I'll never forget,

I'll always remember the road I travel.

I remember my roots. My roots.

I'll never forget. My roots.
