Bob Marley Trenchtown Lyrics

Trenchtown Lyrics

Up a cane river to wash my dread
Upon a rock I rest my head
There I vision
through the seas of oppression
Don't make my life a prison

We come
from Trench Town, Trench Town
Most of them come from Trench Town
We free
the people with music, sweet music
Can we free the people with music
Can
we free our people with music, with music
With music, oh music

Whoa
my head, in desolate places we'll find our bread
And everyone see what's
taking place
Whoa-yo another page in history

We come from Trench
Town, come from Trench Town
We come from Trench Town
Lord we free the
people with music
We free the people with music, sweet music
We free our
people with music
With music, oh music, oh music

They say it's hard
to speak
They feel so strong to say we're weak
But through the eyes the
love of our people
Whoa-a they got to repay

We come from Trench
Town
We come from Trench Town, Trench, Trench Town
They say can anything
good come out of Trench Town?
That's what they say, Trench Town
Say we're
the underpriveleged people
So they keep us in chains
Pay pay pay tribute
to Trench Town, Trench Town
We come from Trench Town, not because we come
from Trench Town
Just because we come from Trench Town
