Great Mr. Blackman

"People say you are too young, too young..."
I say he is the grat Mr. Black Man,
Give due respect to the artist,
Jamaican king of swing and lovers rock,
Original roots reggae man.

He came from Jamaica one day
To do what the really likes to do,
Sing to the people in Brazilian Jamaica,
So he sang so sweet and blue,

Backed by Tribo de Jah band,
Managed by Mr. Lovie Lloyd,
Yeah man! Another original Jamaican Man,
Good friend, respect!

Oh what a time so nice, so nice,
In 1991, the first time the Jamaican singer,
Great Mr. Black Man, Gregory Isaacs in Brazil...
In the beginning of the night,
Eating fried fish and rice, tasting Jack-Fruit,
Awaiting for the time to perform a great show
Alive In the Ponta D'Areia beach, at the sea side,
Inna São Luiz town. Singing in the sunset,
Oh wath a good sound!
Singing with feeling and soul,
So he sang so sweet and blue
And made people crazy with the old classic Reggae,
Yeah man! Good music!

Attention! Too much troubles in the production,
Local producers don't understand anything
About the history of reggae
Music, so they made their work so bad; never
Respecting the great
Talent of the artist, that's why I say...

He is the great Mr. Black Man, I say,
Give due respect to the artist,
Jamaican king of swing and lovers rock,
Original roots reggae man.
