okayokay, just for you, my special sauce
is the ankle bells, thats what make me
prance dance and act a fool

thats what make me shake
my longtailed rattle

-------------------------------------

i am flowers of the delta clan flowers
and the line of o killens

i am mythmaker
a weaver of conjure and a worker
of storm, a caster of bones and
tomorrows truths

i make myth and myth makes tomorrow
as i define so shall it be for you see my friends
i am a conjuror

a dread delta hoodoo with twisted hands
and seared mouthharp lungs
come to call thru fierce arrogant hunger
to me o mighty race

for i have had visions, ive seen the promised land

it is i rickydoc trickmaster
casting my vision as far as i can see, determining the
challenges the tribe will face and now i will prepare
the tribal soul to meet them

for it is i rickydoc rootdoctor,
speak in the name of the old gods
speak in the name of olodummare, ngai and nkulunkulu
speak in the name of legba and oshun

i works for mr conqueroo
the hopebringer, the burdenbearer, the battlefighter, the jackpot winner

it is i rickydoc rootdoctor
come to call you firstborn, you who walked first
on two feet, once again you must stand where others crawl
once again you must show the way

listen firstborn to these words of power
listen firstborn to the geas of rickydoc and i will give you a mission
greater than your adversity

i will give you responsibility for humanities march into its ever greater self
and i will i ask that you take responsibility not only for your own destiny
but the destiny of all peoples and all jah creature great and small

i will ask then that you strive always to be greater than you are
and when you come to the crossroads always take the highroad
always go for the greater self, always go for the greater good

i ask only that you be the great and glorious people you
were meant to be, the illuminated children of the sun
humanities living ancestors and gods true chosen

it is i rickydoc trickmaster, i have seen the promisedland
and this is what i see

i see a people mighty and strong, wise and illuminated
i see a people respected throughout the cosmos
and striving always to be greater than they are

listen firstborn to the geas of rickydoc
if you would reclaim your legacy as gods holy instrument
you must stand on higher ground

and yes we have come such a long such a long long way
but we still got so very far to go

and the next time that you find yourself in trouble
i want you to remember what the old rootdoctor said
every goodby aint gone, cause you sick dont mean you dead
and trouble, it dont last always, trouble dont last always

and when the hardtimes come and they
always do i want you to hold on be strong
you fight the battles friend nobody else could win

and when you need me
you call me, i will come

i am rickydoc
