Jimmy Cliff - Wahjahka Man (Lyrics)

Lyrics
Verse 1 :
I never needed nobody, to show me how to walk
I never needed nobody, to teach me how to talk
Never needed nobody, to tell me make my mark
I'm experienced man, I can understand,
I know how to get along
Chorus 1:
Wahjahka man, in a any land,
In a Jamaica, in a Britannia (I'm a)
Wahjahka man, in a any land,
In a Africa, in America (uh huh hey hey)
Verse 2 :
I never needed nobody, to come and hold me hand
I never needed nobody, to take me thru' the land
Never needed nobody, to tell me make a stand
I'm experienced man, I can understand,
I know how to get along
Repeat Chorus 1, Verse 1, Chorus 1
Chorus 2 :
Wahjahka man, in a any land,
Got this name ya, in a me blood now

we should honor him now ,don"t wait til he "s gone to give him flowers..

Sonia they did that

[@achoojike375]

Probably one of the most underrated artist of all time . He has churned out more music than you can keep count of, all, top rank sizzling hits. His philosophical messages stands him out and make you take notice as you ponder the meanings. All his songs bar none will take you to certain philosophical wander. It's simply a pity that this legend of our time has not been honoured befittingly. Started singing in the 60's yet hasn't lost a chord in his voice, and still going strong . How he manages this is amazing. Can't think of many singers with such longevity in the art. Jimmy remains a wonderful gift from God to humanity, as his songs has put smiles and happiness in to peoples lives. Rock on Bongo Man.

He's not that underrated. Video for Journey has 7.7 million views here.

My dear mother died on my hands in the hospital and and the doctors were telling me and my father that we should not disturb her but my father who has been a Traveller before I was born revealed to me that his heart thrown is gone Then , it dawned on me that I have lost a dear and 'A PRESCIOUS MOTHER' And that led to my father's demise We are orphans but my siblings believe that I am all about their parents. Let them rest on Chief Innocent Egeonu
