Painting depicts a Black Buffalo soldier in the United States Army ranging across the desert on horseback.

Buffalo soldiers were African American soldiers who mainly served on the Western frontier following the American Civil War. In 1866, six all-Black cavalry and infantry regiments were created after Congress passed the Army Organization Act. Their main tasks were to help control the Native Americans of the Plains, capture cattle rustlers and thieves, and protect settlers, stagecoaches, wagon trains, and railroad crews along the Western front.

Who Were the Buffalo Soldiers?

No one knows for certain why, but the soldiers of the all-Black 9th and 10th Cavalry Regiments were dubbed “buffalo soldiers” by the Native Americans they encountered.

One theory claims the nickname arose because the soldiers’ dark, curly hair resembled the fur of a buffalo. Another assumption is that the soldiers fought so valiantly and fiercely that the Indians revered them as they did the mighty buffalo.

Whatever the reason, the name stuck, and African American regiments formed in 1866, including the 24th and 25th Infantry (which were consolidated from four regiments), became known as buffalo soldiers.

Buffalo Soldier

Buffalo Soldier, dreadlock Rasta

There was a Buffalo Soldier

In the heart of America

Stolen from Africa, brought to America

Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival

I mean it, when I analyze the stench

To me, it makes a lot of sense

How the dreadlock Rasta was the Buffalo Soldier

And he was taken from Africa, brought to America

Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival

Said he was a Buffalo Soldier, dreadlock Rasta

Buffalo Soldier, in the heart of America

If you know your history

Then you would know where you coming from

Then you wouldn\'t have to ask me

Who the heck do I think I am

I\'m just a Buffalo Soldier

In the heart of America

Stolen from Africa, brought to America

Said he was fighting on arrival

Fighting for survival

Said he was a Buffalo Soldier

Win the war for America

Said he, woe yoy yoy, woe yoy yoy yoy

Woe yoy yoy yo, yoy yoy yoy yo

Woe yoy yoy, woe yoy yoy yoy

Troddin\' through the land, yeah, yeah

Said he was a Buffalo Soldier

Win the war for America

Buffalo Soldier, dreadlock Rasta

Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival

Driven from the mainland

To the heart of the Caribbean

Singing, woe yoy yoy, woe yoy yoy yoy

Woe yoy yoy yo, yoy yoy yoy yo

Woe yoy yoy, woe yoy yoy yoy

Woe yoy yoy yo, yoy yoy yoy yo

Troddin\' through San Juan

In the arms of America

Troddin\' through Jamaica, a Buffalo Soldier

Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival

Buffalo Soldier, dreadlock Rasta

Woe yoy yoy, woe yoy yoy yoy

Woe yoy yoy yo, yoy yoy yoy yo
