REVOLT OF CHIEF TACKY
By Alma Norman
Tacky the chieftain, decided to fight.
"I finish with being a slave."
The morning sun rose clear and bright
On him and his followers brave
(His hundreds of followers brave)
So cunningly he laid his plan
So fierce his courage shone
That up and down Jamaica land
Men made his cause their own
(They made his cause their own)
But one, faint-hearted, slipped away
Upon that fateful morn
And many died on that sad day
For soldiers had been warned
(Militia men were warned)
Oh sad it is to have to tell
But some the challenge spurned
Once more like slaves their spirits fell
To bondage they returned
(To bondage they returned)
But Coramantyne Tacky fought
"As long as I have breath
No man shall boast that I was caught."
A bullet caused his death
(Davy's bullet caused his death)
A bitter bullet laid him low
No man knows where he lies
So sing a mournful song and low
Beneath Jamaica skies
(For in this soil he lies)
