When I hear a Reggae song
   my heart begins to sing
   the rhyth'm makes my body move
   my soul begins to swing
   but remember what this music really means
   it is the power of the poor
   a weapon against their fear
  
   People are down, my love
   I see the tears are rolling down their faces
   people are down, my love
   but Reggae is a stuff
   which sets you up
  
   Reggae is so wonderful
   it fills my heart with joy
   but it's also powerful
   it is no toy
   Reggae, that is energy, for the freedom now
   and it fights for human rights
   as everyone should do When I hear a Reggae song
