Lyrics:
nation
And with one foot barely off the plantation
We built businesses and new towns
But you know what happens when that Black Dollar starts circulating
risk favoritez unanswered conversate alone by pass one isn't yestard yes stirdy no awarded explored plantation
Effiectcy surf survive reop gone is
On the plantation
For the
Medi-meditation
Back in dem days
5 clandestine families
Planned a nation
With a
Palette of sensations
Contradicts the
Condemnation
While
On a mangé la poussière de la pire des manières
Peu fier de retourner dans la plantation d'hier
La mer est une frontière, comment aller ailleurs ?
Désormais
where the tales of old are told.
The moonlit dances, the traditional tunes,
Daklak's soul, under the bright moon swoons.
[Verse 4]
Coffee plantations
a still a-longin' for the old plantation,
Oh, for the old folks at home.
Ah-oh-oh!
Oh, my my!
Well, way down upon the Swanee River,
Far, far away-hey.
Wo,
roam
I'm a still a-longin' for the old plantation,
Oh, for the old folks at home
Ah-oh-oh!
Oh, my my!
Well, way down upon the Swanee River,
away from civilization
Brought us to slave in this big plantation
Fussing and fighting, among ourselves
Nothing to achieve this way, it's worse
to use me
And abuse me
I leave dem with a frown
They work us for so long on dem plantation and me never get paid
Our gold they stole away, how many
roam
I'm a still a-longin' for the old plantation,
Oh, for the old folks at home
Ah-oh-oh!
Oh, my my!
Well, way down upon the Swanee River,
roam
I'm a still a-longin' for the old plantation,
Oh, for the old folks at home
Ah-oh-oh!
Oh, my my!
Well, way down upon the Swanee River,
roam
I'm a still a-longin' for the old plantation,
Oh, for the old folks at home
Ah-oh-oh!
Oh, my my!
Well, way down upon the Swanee River,
a tune to beat the band
The whole plantation's hummin' since you brought Dixie back to Dixieland.
You make our cotton easy to pick, Mame
You give my old
me down
and though they try to use me
and abuse me
a leave dem wid a frown
They work us for so long
on dem plantation
and mi neva get pay
Haile Selassie I!
They took us away from Africa
Far, far, far from Jamaica
To work on the sleep plantation
All we see was frustration
Jah, O Jah

I'm a still a-longin' for the old plantation,
Oh, for the old folks at home

Well, way down upon the Swanee River,
Dans mon dos, une plantation de canne à sucre
Pas l'temps de me doser, faut négocier
Confiance qu'en mes gavas sûrs
Facile de critiquer mais on en
