/: No one remember old Marcus Garvey,
No one remember old Marcus Garvey :/
No one remember him, no one
they been talking about Paul Bogle,
They been talking about William Goddon
They been talking about Norman Washington Manley,
including Bustamante
Noone remember old Marcus Garvey,
Noone remember old Marcus Garvey
f
Finest time
John the Baptist's head were cut off
Put it away into a saucer,
Still disciples have oh Lord believe me,
Yes they stoneth him to death
Noone remember old Marcus Garvey,
Noone remember old Marcus Garvey
This day the right way
This day the right way
This day the right way
All us got todo is
A true black Lou I
A hatred scatter, even melt before the fire light go out
Noone remember old Marcus Garvey,
Noone remember old Marcus Garvey
Children, children, children, children
Humble yourself and become one day somehow
You will remember him you will
Noone remember old Marcus Garvey,
Noone remember old Marcus Garvey
Garvey's old yet young
Garvey's old yet young
Garvey's old yet young
Garvey's old yet young.......
