See him a come deh, see him a come deh, see him a come deh,
Him a the roots man, yeah! Him a the roots man!
See him a come deh, see him a come deh, see him a come deh,
Him a the roots man! Original roots man from Belem, yeah!

They come with their big long gun,
They’re trying to make him wrong,
Instead they fall down,
They see him standing Strong,
Him a the roots man, him a the roots man!

See him a come deh, see him a come deh, see him a come deh,
Him a the roots man, yeah!
See him a come deh, see him a come deh, see him a come deh,
Him a the roots man! Natural, original roots man from the Amazon Gate!

Ele está na raiz e na origem do movimento
Que trouxe para o país o reggae roots há tanto tempo;
Tributo a Ras Alvim,
Eu falo por todos e por mim,
Colecionador das preciosas pedras
Que se espalharam por essas terras...

CHORUS
