1
Sit with me awhile
2
Let me tell you about a part of our country
3
At the place Stony Gut back in 1865
4
Lived a man Paul Bogle who was everything
5
A good man should be
6
But they hanged him by the courthouse
7
An example for Jamaica to see
8
They hanged him by the courthouse
9
An example for Jamaica to see.
10
A man who followed Jesus
11
And whose actions were in line with his teachings
12
Who every Sunday morning
13
The gospel would endeavour to preach
14
Who understood the suffering of the people
15
He plainly could feel
16
But they hanged him by the courthouse
17
An example for Jamaica to see
18
They hanged him by the courthouse
19
An example for Jamaica to see.
20
With the men from Stony Gut
21
Paul Bogle did come down that day
22
Through the bushes by the hills
23
Until they reached the town of Morant Bay
24
The reasons for his warnings and his actions
25
They could not believe
26
So they hanged him by the courthouse
27
An example for Jamaica to see
28
They hanged him by the courthouse
29
An example for Jamaica to see.
30
That was like yesterday, Still happening today
31
History use to tell us That Paul Bogle was really a traitor
32
Who murdered and rebelled
33
Against the peaceful government of the day
34
Now we can see clearly
35
And we finally know the reasons indeed
36
Why they hanged him by the courthouse
37
An example for Jamaica to see
38
They hanged him by the courthouse
39
An example for Jamaica to see.
40
That was like yesterday, Still happening today
41
Unu remember Michael Gayle, Braeton 7,
42
Nuff youth from Tivoli, August Town, Rema and Jungle.
43
Do you remember? Oh yeah
44
Like yesterday things are happening just the same today
45
Many get slain, I think it's insane It happens on and on.
