400 Years - Jamaican Version

400 years (400 years, 400 years. Wo-o-o-o)
And it's the same
The same (wo-o-o-o) philosophy
I've said it's four hundred years
(400 years, 400 years. Wo-o-o-o, wo-o-o-o)
Look, how long (wo-o-o-o)
And the people they (wo-o-o-o) still can't see

Why do they fight against the poor youth of today?
And without these youths, they would be gone
All gone astray

Come on, let's make a move
(Make a move, make a move wo-o-o-o, wo-o-o-o)
I can (wo-o-o-o) see time (wo-o-o-o) time has come
And if-a fools don't see
(Fools don't see, fools don't see wo-o-o-o)
I can't save the youth
The youth (wo-o-o-o) is gonna be strong
So, won't you come with me
I'll take you to a land of liberty
Where we can live live a good, good life
And be free

Look how long 400 years, (400 years, 400 years)
Way too long! (wo-o-o-o)
And the people, (wo-o-o-o) my people can't see
Said, it's four hundred long years (400 years, 400 years. Wo-o-o-o)
Give me patience (wo-o-o-o) same philosophy

It's been 400 years (400 years, 400 years)
Wait so long! wo-o-o-o, wo-o-o-o
Look how long? 400 long, long years
People hiding from reality 400 years
