Verse 1:

From mi see a gal whey look good

Mi haffi fool har (an get whey mi want)

Cause mi nuh live over Shortwood

So mi haffi bounce har (mek she drop inna mi paw)

A nuff gal mi a go pass through

Like Patra (an di one Lady Saw)

An mi deh hear bout di Oouch crew

Whey have them gal (Xrated an raw)

Dat mean we a go warn dem

And we haffi get dem (An nuh tell mi sey mi caan)

Cause mi nuh join the hol dung an tek (Dat a Rape)

But if mi beg an mi get (thats great)

Sometime mi preach but mi know (mi wi wait)

Chorus

Verse 2:

Well, mi believe ina sey man nuh fi watch nuh face

Agony fi gwaan from gal dey pon base

Five six seven eight gal a whey mi waan

One burner business a nuh me dat yaah

A long time mi a notice how di leg dem brown

Nuff night mi see har inna har mini night gown

A line mi a line up fi lick out mi sound

Chorus
