Well its about time they recognised jamaican as an official language

Known as patwa but patwa is english that is broken

But its not broken its a language that's universally spoken

Jamaican

That a way you talk me brother jamaican

That a way you talk sister jamaican

That a way you talk me brother jamaican

Talk how u talk sister

Not so long ago down in africa we were talking african to one and other

Some wicked man come cross the border

Say we are the slave and say him is the owner

Put we on a big ship together

Seperate the mother father sister and the brother

Put a man from garna with a man from nigeria

One atalk a shante one atalk uroba

Try to mix we up so we don't understand

Dem forget the african invent comunnication

We take de english put in the african

A touch of arawak indian and we get jamaican

That a way you talk me brother jamaican

That a way you talk sister jamaican

That a way you talk me brother jamaican

Talk how u talk sister

Ye man

Everywher we go people wanna learn jamican

Dem love the sound they the vibration

De love the gramma the word combination

Spoken in a jamaica by the whole of the nation

Some people say u have to speak the english

De say jamaica is a lower language

We talk the english when we want but listen to this

Out of english and jamaica what sound the sweatest

Look at that co der
