Quincy Jones - Many Rains Ago (Feat Wyclef) lyrics

rate me

Screaming so loud that I’m losing my voice

Them boys they grabbed my wife

Stabbed her twice took her life

Wanna know why I got this anger

Wanna know why I keep a banger

I see that man told my daddy on tracks

Train ran him over and the boys don’t even look back

I got no reason to live

They just lynched my kids

Sometimes I just wish I'd jumped ship in the Atlantic

Then I wouldn’t have to deal whit this shit

Then I’ll woke up from the nightmare dream

Roots on my TV screen

Like Martin had a dream

All his kids and harmony

Sing it loud like a symphony

If you’re free let it ring(repeats)

Sing me

That old song

From many rains ago

(repeats)

When the rain fell down

When the rain feel down

Lost your children by the sea

Take it from the land

Many years ago

Goodbye mother land

Sing me

That old song

From many rains ago

(repeats)

Let the rain fall down

Let the rain fall down

You are the chosen one

I got to go back to the motherland

I got to get back to the motherland

(repeats)

Goodbye my baby

Sing me

That old song

From many rains ago

(repeats)

Let the rain fall down

Let the rain fall down

You are the chosen one
