Parole de "Duppy Conquerer" :

Yes, me friend,We deh a street again.

Yes, me friend, me good friend,

Dem say we free again.

The bars could not hold me

Force could not control me now.

They try to keep me down, yeah!

But Jah put I around. Yeah!

Yes, I've been accused many a times

And wrongly abused, now.

Oh, but through the powers of the Most-I,

They've got to turn me loose.

Don't try to cold me up on this bridge, now.

I've got to reach Mount Zion -The highest region.

So if you a bull-bucka,

Let me tell you this -I'm a duppy conqueror - conqueror. Oh, yeah!

Yes, me friend, me good friend,

We deh a street again.

Yes, me friend, me good friend,

Dem say we free again.

So don't try to cold me up on this bridge, now.

I've got to reach Mount Zion -The highest region.

So if you a bull-bucka,

Let me tell you this:I'm a duppy conqueror - conqueror.

Yes, me friend,

Dem say we free again.

Yes, me friend,

Dem set we free again.

Yes, me friend, me good friend."
