LYRICS

Verse 1

I am in love and I am still young
So I decide I want to settle down
But before I make that sacred vow
Ah want to know what she like and ain’t like now
 
She say "Chuck boy ah just want you to know
"Ah doh like soca, chutney, pan or calypso"
Meh eyes got red, ah went into shock
Then ah tell mehself this thing eh go wuk
 
Yuh doh like Sparrow and yuh doh like Boogsie
Yuh ain’t much up Sunny Man neither Drupatee
You ain’t like Tanty Rose neither Super Blue
Tell me how yuh love for me could be true
If yuh doh like Sherwin and Shadow
Yuh say yuh doh like the man Cro Cro
Yuh say Machel is ah mad man, the things he do yuh doh understand
Yuh doh even like Benjai, then yuh love fuh me is a lie lie lie lie
Then yuh love fuh me is ah lie, gyal yuh out to mamaguy
Then yuh love fuh me is ah lie
 
She say she love the zouk and samba
She like the meringue and the cha cha
Then she tell meh she’s a reggae freak
And when she hear Buju she does get weak
She say she love music from all over the earth
But not the music from the country of my birth
When she tell me how, much she love hard rock
Then ah tell mehself this thing eh go wuk
 
Yuh doh like Baron and yuh don’t like Crazy
Yuh ain’t much up Kes the Band neither Ravi B
You ain’t like King David neither Tamboo
Tell me how yuh love fuh me could be true
If yuh doh like Relater and Lingo, yuh cah listen to extempo
Yuh say that Bunji and Fay Ann should stay in the asylum
Yuh doh even like KI, then yuh love fuh me is a lie lie lie lie
Then yuh love fuh me is ah lie, gyal yuh out to mamaguy
Then yuh love fuh me is ah lie
 
Ah wah uh chook and go down low, ah wah yuh dance to calypso
Yuh cah wine to yuh soca, then yuh cah be meh lover
Yuh cah dance to yuh chutney, then yuh cannot be with me
Yuh cah appreciate pan, then yuh can’t be meh woman
 
She say calypso is bacchanal, and pan is a noisy instrumental
And the chutney songs to insulting, and the soca artiste them only shouting
Ah say gyal before you could say ah next thing
Yuh better do fast and pass back meh wedding ring
She eyes got red, she went into shock
When she realize this thing eh go wuk
 
Yuh doh like Scrunter and yuh doh like Gypsy
Yuh ain’t much up Explainer neither Rooplal G
You ain’t like Uncle Blaxx or the Roy Cape crew
Tell me how yuh love for me could be true
If yuh doh like Saucy and Destra
Yuh fedup ah the sex in soca
Yuh say Ray Holman and Uncle Joe
Shouldn’t be writing and winning so
Yuh doh like Ras Shorty I
Then yuh love fuh me is ah lie lie lie lie
Then yuh love fuh me is ah lie
Fuh meh culture yuh cah even try
Then yuh love fuh me is ah lie
