Red Rasta Lyrics & Tabs by Paddy Goes To Holyhead
Red Rasta
guitar chords lyrics
Grandpa was an Irishman
from Eireann′s lovely shore he came
He was fighting for the english crown
and settled down in Kingston-Town
One summer′s morning he did stray
near a village called Montego-Bay
He fell in love with a pretty dame
and Mary-Joana was her name
[[chorus:]]
Do you feel the good vibrations all night long
Sing the Irish Rastafari-Ragamuffin-Song
Father came from Germany
to sail upon the stormy sea
Mother left Jamaica′s strand
to the town of Amsterdam she went
to sail upon the stormy sea
Mother left Jamaica′s strand
to the town of Amsterdam she went
Working in a factory
and he asked her would you marry me
But the sailor-lad was going away
and I was born on a winter′s day
[[chorus]]
Now I′m sitting in a coffee-shop
writing songs of Ragamuffin-Pop
Livin′ free in harmony
come on everybody and sing with me
[[chorus]]
