Force could not control me now

But through the powers of the Most-'Igh, 
They've got to turn me loose, mm!

To cold me up (brr)

Let me tell you that 
I'm a duppy conqueror, conqueror

(Brr) Don't try (brr) 
To cold me up on (brr) 
This (brr) bridge now 
I've got to reach Mount Zion 
The 'ighest region 
(Brr) If you bull-bucka, 
Let me tell you 
I'm a duppy conqueror, hit it! (conqueror)
