Here's my attempt to post Burning Spear's "Columbus" lyrics, as asked for 
last week.


I and I hold(?) I know
I and I hold(?) I say
I and I reconsider
I and I see upful 'e dat(?)

Chorus: Christopher Columbus is a damblasted liar (2x)
	Yes Jah!

He say 'im dat he's the first one
Who discovered Jamaica
I and I say dat(?)
What about de Arawak Indians
And those few black men who were down dere before 'im?

The Indians could nuh remain on the land long
Here comes black man and woman and children
Inna Jam down land, yah

Whole heap a mix up mix up
Whole heap a baddo baddo(?)
And haff mi straight in a hole (or hold - slave ship's hold?)

<Chorus>

What a long stay from home
I and I longing to go home
Within a Red, Green and Gold robe
Come on! Twelve tribe of Israel (2x)
Outa that Jamdown land, yah.....

etc.
