Lyrics to "Creation Rebel"

[Ahmzoclaat]

Looking for the lyrics to this Burning Spear track, later covered by Johnny Clarke. I would greatly appreciate it.

[benjamin]

nice cover by Freddy McKay too. But for the exact lyrics wait for someone else's answer..

[Sufferer's Hi-Fi]

I,m not sure but I think that the "Creation Rebel" CD on Heartbeat may include lyrics- have to check on that one.

Burning Spear-creation rebel

Travell up all the rough road
To find my bredren to find my bredren
Call so loud
Search all around
Now and today my cry
They cal me inna creation rebel now rebel now 2x
Creation rebel they call me
One ting more for i to told yu for i to told yu yeh
For i to told yu 2x
One ting more for i to told yu
One shoe pon my feet yeh
One pants to me waste
One shirt on by bag
Is gone is gone
what am i to do
I don´t know

They call me inna creation
Rebel now rebel now rebel now 2x

Rebel inna morning
Rebel inna evening
Rebel universaly
Rebel fuss from dat time
Until this time
I made up my mind
Go on my pain
Singing my song
Maybe Maybe
I wil find food on the other side
Creation rebel they call me
Rebel i rebel i rebel i yeh
Rebel i rebel i
fade

One shirt on by back

[Well Charge]

Isn't it "want shoes on my feet" etc rather than "one shoe on my feet"?

[jordandance]

This reminds of my high school mate who used to think Sade's hit was some foreign word pronounced ooo-up-a-day-da

Isn't it "want shoes on my feet" etc rather than "one shoe on my feet"?

ya man. you are probably right. its tough to tell the difference between "want" and "one"
