Them say nobody couldn't beat Mike Tyson
Somebody beat him but it was a Blackman

Nuff respect to the one Jesse Jackson
Him came a long way since plantation

What an achievement for a Blackman

Who invented the blood bank? It was a Blackman
The first long life light bulb? Blackman
The first striking clock? Blackman
The first successful open-heart surgeon? Blackman

So when you give we a chance, when you give a chance
(Blackman, Blackman, Blackman)
We can do more than sing and play sport and dance
When we say Blackman we mean the woman them too
'Cause without the Black woman there is nothing we can do

They go to work, have babies keep the family together
And still when them ready look as beautiful as ever
They're intelligent and patient with the fittest body
(Blackman, Blackman, Blackman)
Me say yes, Black woman you're the one for me

This a the Blackman
This one a the Black ma-ma-man

When it comes to loving then say Blackman a the champion
Them say nobody can't love like a Blackman
The white women them a run down the Blackman
Them a call we the African stallion

Stallion fe dem but no stallion fe me
'Cause fe me woman a the Black beauty
Me say gwaan Mad Professor 'cause you a mix me
Representing the Ariwa posse this a the Blackman
