Paul Bogle

作詞:Abdel Wayne Wright

Sit with me awhile
Let me tell you about a part of our country
At the place Stony Gut back in 1865
Lived a man Paul Bogle who was everything
A good man should be

But they hanged him by the courthouse
An example for Jamaica to see
They hanged him by the courthouse
An example for Jamaica to see

A man who followed Jesus
And whose actions were in line with His teachings
Who every Sunday morning
The gospel would endeavor to preach
Who understood the suffering of the people
He plainly could feel

But they hanged him by the courthouse
An example for Jamaica to see
They hanged him by the courthouse
An example for Jamaica to see

With the men from Stony Gut
Paul Bogle did come down that day
Through the bushes by the hills
Until they reached the town of Morant Bay
The reasons for his warnings and his actions
They could not believe

So they hanged him by the courthouse
An example for Jamaica to see
They hanged him by the courthouse

An example for Jamaica to see

That was like yesterday
Still happening today

History used to tell us
That Paul Bogle was really a traitor
Who murdered and rebelled
Against the peaceful government of the day
Now we can see clearly
And we finally know the reasons indeed

Why they hanged him by the courthouse
An example for Jamaica to see
They hanged him by the courthouse
An example for Jamaica to see

That was like yesterday
Still happening today

Unu remember Michael Gayle and Braeton 7
Nuff Youth from Tivoli, August Town and Rema and Jungle
Do you remember? Oh yeah
Like yesterday things are happening just the same today
Many get slain, I think it's insane

It happens on and on, on and on
It happens on and on, on and on
It happens on and on, on and on

Remember Michael Gayle, remember Braeton 7
Tivoli, August Town [Incomprehensible]get slain
