Oooh, oh, black sounds of freedom
Oh-oh, ah

I love King Selassie
I love King Selassie I
I love King Selassie
I love King Selassie I

I love King Selassie red, oh yeah
I love King Selassie I gold
I love King Selassie green
Oh, I love everything that is clean
So I say

I love King Selassie
I love King Selassie I
I love King Selassie
I love King Selassie I

He's the only man in flesh
Whom you can't look in the eyes
From the first time I know, Jah Jah
He is so divine
He is called as a Lamb
The only man that's on this land, oh, oh
Some people feel that they can work Jah to the bone

I love King Selassie
I love King Selassie I
I love King Selassie
I love King Selassie I

So they can rule the trone, yeah
But no man can sit on His seat, yeah
To remove their sins thereof
Jah Jah, the King of Kings, all over the earth
Yet they refuse to treat Jah, like a living man
So I say

I love King Selassie
I love King Selassie I
I love King Selassie
I love King Selassie I

(..)

Useless praying to the spirit
'Cause the spirit is within the flesh of I and I
So there goes an illusion
The spirit is an illusion, oh yeah

I love King Selassie
I love King Selassie I
I love King Selassie
I love King Selassie I

I love red, green and gold, oh yeah
I love King Selassie red
I love King Selassie I gold
I love King Selassie green
Oh, oh, oh, yeah

I love King Selassie
I love King Selassie I
I love King Selassie
I love King Selassie I

Hmm, oh-oh, black sounds of freedom
Ooh-oh, ooh-oh

I love King Selassie
I love King Selassie I
I love King Selassie
I love King Selassie I..
