Farmerman
Me born & grow as a farmer man/
Yea-yea-yea, so tell dem Ras Muhamad/
...From Indonesia/ Naptali/
Ras Muhamad from the east, way from Indonesia/
Calling out the priest, Naptali from Jamaica/
I was born to make hit songs, I was born as a farmer/
Born & grow with mom & dad, I man nah grow as a gangster/
[*] Naptali:
I'm a farmer man/
Trodding the hills from clarendon/
N might be dutty n mi tired/
Still a put mi shoulder to wheel/
Ras Muhamad/
You is a farmer man/
Trodding the hills of Indonesia/
You might be dutty n yuh tired/
Still yuh put yuh shoulder to di wheel/

Ras Muhamad:
See di farmer man rise ina di morning/
Ready with him hand to flex up the soil now /
Work & toil Plant up banana, rice & wheat yah/

Coo yah now see di farmer man how dem a work di soil/
See di farmer man how dem a work n toil/
From morning to evening, from sundown to dawn/

Ras Muhamad:

Soya bean fi nyam now/

Cultivate the land from Indonesia to Jamdown/

Ras Muhamad:
Menanam bibit untuk musim panen/
Lalu lahan digarap dengan skill dan talent/
Terus hadapi, jalani, apa yang dialami/
Dengar pesan Ras Muhamad dan Naptali/
