lyrics

rooty cowboy
use to be a kid
but now he is a man
he’s got the trick
in light he stands and he won’t forget
now he can understand and he knows it



me remember when me was a youngster
the likkle rooty cowboy horseback rider
using the sun fi the time and guiding star
i-man was riding west on a adventure

i was searching for a pot of gold and silver
seeking between the lines in every chapter
until me bump into a strange encounter
oh rightcha know jan man it was an indian rasta



rooty cowboy
use to be a kid
but now he is a man
he’s got the trick
in light he stands and he won’t forget
now he can understand and he knows it




him teach me bout the solar system and nature
teach me bout the fauna teach me bout the flora
bout the 4 elements which hold the power
which air and fire me say earth and water

tell mi fi respect the elder respect the fada
respect the mada ya brother and sista
respect the one and other respect the color
respect every man respect the indian rasta




COOKAH
rooty cowboy
use to be a kid
but now he is a man
he’s got the trick
in light he stands and he won’t forget
now he can understand and he knows it




hop off my horse just like a cowboy
enter the saloon order for a dry Rob Roy
sight john wayne from the corner of my eye
ask for a spliff as me buck on a boy

him search him pockets take out some tin foil
give me 3 buds of ganja and tell me fi enjoy
but warn me fi keep it safe nah use it to spoil
it is one of rarest and come from the purest of the soil



well me pause for a second decide fi build one
him cut me short and tell me fi cool down
it not the right time fi the kind of ting man
me put a way the geer and fling out question

man tell me where the ting come from
him tell bout a certain a spiritual indian
living out in the wild with him tribe and him woman

and he only know
oh where the ting come from
and he only know
oh where the ting come from
and he only know
oh where the ting come from
and he only know
oh where the ting come from
