Lyrics
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
Perdu de vue depuis dix ans, moi qui m’disais
Mon aller-retour serait vite-fait
J’ai perdu ma route comme un tiseur
Parti trop tôt d’chez moi sans être avisé
La déchéance de l’homme m’a tétanisé
Et certains d’entre nous préfèrent l’ignorer
Les yeux fermés à jamais
Parti trop tôt d’chez moi sans être avisé
La déchéance de l’homme m’a tétanisé
Et certains d’entre nous préfèrent l’ignorer
Les yeux fermés à jamais
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
Ça fait déjà une décennie
Que je sais qu’je n’reviendrai plus
Je fais le tour de la Terre
De l’euphorie au garde-à-vous
Jusqu'à la fin d’mes jours, loin de vous
Jusqu'à la fin d’mes jours, loin de vous
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
Perdu de vue depuis dix ans, moi qui m’disais
Mon aller-retour serait vite-fait
J’ai perdu ma route comme un tiseur
Lyrics translation
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
Lost sight of ten years ago, I thought
My round trip would be quick-done
I lost my way as a shoemaker
Left my house too early without being told
The loss of man has tetanized me
And some of us prefer to ignore it
Eyes closed forever
Left my house too early without being told
The loss of man has tetanized me
And some of us prefer to ignore it
Eyes closed forever
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
It's been a decade already.
That I know I'll never come back
I go around the Earth
From euphoria to self-preservation
Till the end of my days, away from you
Till the end of my days, away from you
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
If I was a Jamaican boy from Africa
Lost sight of ten years ago, I thought
My round trip would be quick-done
I lost my way as a shoemaker
