You tired run me - You tired shun me
You was meh biggest enemy
Look now we dancing the soca chutney
These are the things that does make me happy
Look how you flinging it - Look how you swinging it
Look how you -Look how you - Look how you - Look how yuh

Just keep in mind that we jamming till morning
All the waist you pelting - All this thing you doing
That is a sign to prepare for what coming

Ah love it - When yuh go down meh lover
And you - Start to rub it up - Wuk it up = Roll it up
Roll up the bum see - Roll up the bum see - Roll up the bum see

The day you meet me - In the barahee

Edwin “Crazy” Ayoung
Edwin Ayoung or “Crazy” - born Edwin Ayoung in 1944, on Maraval Road in Port-of-Spain, Trinidad of a Venezuelan mother and Trinidadian father of Chinese descent, was - in his youth - as skilled and competitive in his country’s national pastime of cricket, as he has been now for years as a world-travelled musician, performing artist and composer.
Though dubbed The “Loveable Lunatic of Soca,” Ayoung has time and again not been given his due in his native land, yet remains one of the most commercially successful artists on the international soca scene. An experimentalist, he pioneered the unique musical genre known as Parang Soca and played a leading role in promoting Chutney Soca. Crazy would go on to sing several monster smashes in parang soca, including Muchacha and Homemade Wine.
A brilliant double-entendre artiste at its best - Edwin Ayoung has delighted in pushing the envelope in his humorous and witty manner. With songs like Paul, Nani Wine and Suck Meh Soucouyant to name but three, this illustrious performer remains a staple in the music world
He’s been ranked in the top three for Trinidad & Tobago’s annual national calypso monarch competition - his best showing being at position two with Dustbin Cover. He captured the prestigious Road March title (the ‘tune for the road’ during Carnival Monday and Tuesday) in 1985 with Suck Meh, Soucouyant.
The track featured here which “Crazy” co-wrote and vocalizes, is called Ah Love It.
