about

A strange title some would think, but here is the explanation. My Father passed away in the month of May in 2010 and so I decided to record a tribute track to him. My Dad used to play soccer as a youth for a local football team in Ghana. The team were nicknamed "The Brown Bombers" and so naturally I am the… “Son of a Brown Bomber”. I used this track to talk about and give my heartfelt recollection of the many memories of my Dad and growing up under such great man.

lyrics

Verse One / Spawn of a young Mama, Son of a Brown Bomber / not wanted by Obama / my pops played soccer / and scored goals, centre forward, should have paid Papa / I heard he played proper / here comes a young buck / chip off the old block ‘a /
I’m doing shows in Tokyo until its road block ‘a / come together with finesse that means it’s no cock up / I ain’t getting locked up / Son of old Father, frontin’ then don’t bother / and if it’s love when you see me then there’s no problem / Clapton to Cold harbour, I’m reppin no drama / I never told on ya’ / razor like a Barber, rhyming at full volume / am I role model? / Stepping with no hobble / I came to write a novel and kill ya' whole squabble / Son of a Brown… / Chorus / Son of a “Brown Bomber” [x15] / Verse Two / Son of a co-worker, a cocoa worker / having fun in his prime, 70’s circa / a real tearjerker, a man of his word ‘a / a voice to be heard ‘a / kill you in an argument like its cold murder / then sit down and have a drink and take it no further / and not too proud to serve ya’ / he wouldn’t wanna hurt ya’ / a true soul searcher / Son of a kitchen porter, a record exporter / without Pops I could have never made the 4th quarter / a lot of kid’s seven sons plus three daughters / follow these orders / bury your head inside your books get yourself taught up / then come home right away and don’t get caught up / can’t complain about the way I didn’t get brought up / Son of a Brown… / Chorus / Verse Three / Check it, Son of a real man, so I don’t feel bad / I feel proud I get to call this real man Dad / I’m real glad we had the kind of partnership we had / so I don’t feel sad / Son of true friend, brother of Reuben, Joseph, Simeon, Gad, Asher, Benjamin, / Issachar, Levi, Judah, Dan, Zebulun / homie so it’s evident / I’m the son of proud man, hard working / not afraid to tell you what he thinks of you in person / cursing sometimes, never had it easy, there when he needs me / L. O. V. E. / soccer on the TV / Son in the studio working on the BV’s / Wishing that he could of stayed alive like the Bee Gee’s / Son of a Brown… / Chorus /
