Where do you come from man, you come from anywhere?

You come from country where water flows free to the sea



I heard the English said, you got the best of it

When raleigh washed up and found gold all in his hands



There was a woman who gave all her pearls

The ocean rolling, rolled them from the new world



And in the morning, rebel, you come

But you know, he's only breaking the law



There was a hill coolie, and a transatlantic slave,

There came a day when they broke away from all their chains



In country tempers run like Caribbean sun

and the water flows, Gyasi when he went home



There was a woman who gave all her pearls

The ocean rolling, rolled them from the new world



And in the morning, rebel, you come

But you know, he's only breaking the law



There was a woman who gave all her pearls

The ocean rolling, rolled them from the new world



And in the morning, rebel, you come

But you know, he's only breaking the law
