Third World - 1865 (96 Degrees In The Shade) 1977

1865, the title of the song,
was the year that Baptist deacon and preacher
Paul Bogle was hanged by British authorities
Paul Bogle led the 1865 Morant Bay Protesters
who agitated for justice and fair treatment
for all the people in Jamaica

Spoken: Ninety six degrees..
in the shade~...
Real hot.. in the shade~...
Ninety six degrees..
in the shade~...
Real hot.. {oh yes..}
in the shade~...

Sung: Said it was ninety six degrees..
in the shade~...

Ten thousand soldiers.. on parade~...
Taking I and I...
To meet a big fat boy...
Sent from overseas~...
The Queen employ...
Excellency, before you I come
With my representation..
You know where I'm coming from...

You caught me on the loose
Fighting to be free
Now you show me a noose
On the cotton tree
Entertainment for you~...
Martyrdom for me...

Ninety six degrees..
in the shade~...
Real hot.. {oh yes..}
in the shade~...
Ninety six degrees..
in the shade~...
Real hot.. {oh yes..}
in the shade~...

Some may suffer..
And some may burn~...
But I know that one day~..
My people will learn...
As sure as the sun shines~...
Way up in the sky..
Today.. I stand here a victim~..
The truth is I'll never die...

Ninety six degrees..
in the shade~...
Real hot...
in the shade~...
Ninety six degrees..
in the shade~...
Real hot.. {oh yes..}
in the shade~...

Ninety six degrees..
in the shade~...
Real hot...
in the shade~...
Ninety six degrees..
in the shade~...
Real hot.. {oh yes..}
in the shade~...

Ninety six degrees..
in the shade~...
Real hot...
in the shade~...
Ninety six degrees..
in the shade~...
Real hot.. {oh yes..}
in the shade~...

Ninety six degrees..
in the shade~...
