Trend Setter the Original - Involuntary Immigrant/Mamma Say Lyrics

Mamma say, from morning she den pon her knees
Papa say I'm a slave in the west Indies
Mamma say, from morning she den pon her knees
Papa say I'm a slave in the west Indies

Rise up my people now is your time
Concentrate on freeing yourself and illuminating your mind
It's a hard knock life but my people trying
Got to make hay while the sun still shine
Open your third eye don't be blind
Life is one big road with a lot of sign

Mamma say, from morning she den pon her knees
Papa say I'm a slave in the west Indies
Mamma say, from morning she den pon her knees
Papa say I'm a slave in the west Indies

Look for me in a storm or world wind
Jah Jah children very determine reading the books
Cause we never stop learning
Making the money investment turning
Africa is my responsibility
Nah play no fool in a Roman facility
Jah Jah give me all of the ability,
Sacrament burning giving thanks to the trinity

Mamma say, from morning she den pon her knees
Papa say I'm a slave in the west Indies
Mamma say, from morning she den pon her knees
Papa say I'm a slave in the west Indies

Jah Jah love move the obstacles out the way
Chant a psalm every single day
My grandfather banky would always say,
Don't sing the sankie the wicked them a play
Cyan trust the Vatican ministry,
Them lacking Jah love insufficiently
It's a sudden destruction when you think it's Pease and safety

Mamma say, from morning she den pon her knees
Papa say I'm a slave in the west Indies
Mamma say, from morning she den pon her knees
Papa say I'm a slave in the west Indies
