I asked an old Jamaican ska guy what a "Boller Man" was. The lyric is very basic, 1234 Boller man a come with him pockets full of (gold??). As a little child in WI he used to see "Boller Man" walk by and scream "Here come de Boller Man" like you'd scream as a booger man. Boller Man is a term for a gay man says he. The JA Patois dictionary says the similar BULLA man is: a common sugar and flour cookie or small round cake, sold everywhere in Jamaica, so was he a cake seller?
