You have the heart to face
the track
So as a people we must
support you
We have your back
Because you are Jamaica`s
greatest Olympians
Shellyann Frazer-Pryce
You let us feel nice
Veronica Campbell-Brown
You continue to hold your
ground
Asafa, prepare for the next
time around
Injuries will not stop us
from celebrating
Precious moments like these
Because you are Jamaica`s
greatest Olympians
Bridgette, it`s not over yet
Melaine, nobody knows your
pain
Sherone, we know you will do
it back again
We all felt terrified
And we are sorry for those
Who did not qualified
But you are all true
champions because
You are Jamaica`s greatest
Olympians
Bolt and Blake, your names
are already written
On the Olympic cake
All others who made it
through
Jamaica say well done
And we are proud of you
because
You are Jamaica`s greatest
Olympians
Each time the flag fly
Each smile or teardrop from
your eyes
We share with you the glory
and the pain
You are true champions
You will continue to reign
because
You are Jamaica`s greatest
Olympians
