Jamafrica, Jamafrica, Jamafrica {x2}
De Tunis à Douala
Et de Casa à Djaména
La même musique vole
C'est partout, partout
Les rues de Kingston
C'est à vous, c'est à nous
Comme un enfant prophète partout
C'est en moi, c'est en toi
Jamaica tu danses en Africa
Jamafrica, Jamafrica, Jamafrica {x2}
De Soweto à Brazza
De Lagos jusqu'à Yaoundé
Le reggae c'est le roi
La Jamaïque est partout chez soi
C'est Jimmy, c'est Marley
Et les Wailers, oh yes, ah les Wailers
C'est en moi, c'est en toi
Jamaica tu vis en Africa
Jamafrica, jamafrica, jamafrica {x2}
Long ago when I was a little boy
Didn't know where Jamaica was
Spent my time with a racket as a toy
And Arthur was my wizzard of Oz
Then this music came with the wind
I could feel it moving right inside
I started to hit the ball in rythm
And I learned oh I learned
How to dance on the court
Jamafrica, Jamafrica, Jamafrica
