Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yes, me friend, me friend
Dem set me free again
Yes, me friend, me friend
Me deh 'pon street again
[Verse 2]
The bars could not hold me
Force could not control me now
They try to keep me down
But God put me around
[Verse 3]
Yes, I've been accused
Wrongly abused now
But through the powers of the most high
They've got to turn me loose, mmm
[Verse 4]
Don't try to cut me off on this bridge, now
I've got to reach Mount Zion, the highest region
If you a bull-bucka, let me tell you that
I'm a duppy conqueror, conqueror
[Verse 5]
Yes, me friend, me good friend
Dem set me free again, mmm
Yes, me friend
Dem turn me loose again
[Verse 6]
Don't try to cut me off on this bridge, now
I've got to reach Mount Zion, the highest region
If you a bull-bucka, let me tell you
I'm a duppy conqueror, conqueror
[Verse 7]
(Yes, me friend) me friend, me friend, me friend
We deh a street again
Yes, me friend, me friend, me friend
Dem set me free again
[Verse 8]
Don't try to show off
Fi make your friend dem laugh
What a, la-la-la, for I will cut you off
And I will take the last straw
[Verse 9]
I'm cryin', yes, me friend
We deh a street again
Yes, me friend, me friend, me friend
Dem set me free again, ooh, yeah, mmm
[Verse 10]
The bard could not hold me
Force could not control me now
