Nicodemus - Slant Verandah lyrics

Riddim like dis you could never miss (yeah)
Special request to bredrin call Lee Van Cleef
Cah we full up of lyrics (Do it)

Say, every morning I get up
A what are mi plans?
Every morning I get up, a what are mi plans?
I take up mi bible an' I started to chant
I take up mi bible an' I started to chant
Some police man stop mi
Mi ask dem weh dem want
Dem ask mi weh mi work, 'round a plant
Dem ask mi who mi live with, mi tell 'em
"Mi aunt"
Mi build up mi house, but di verandah
It slant
Mi pants nah no patch, mi pants nah no dull

Say, Babylon, say, leave mi, make mi gwan
Say, mister Demus come fi nice up di land
Sheep in a mi mеadow, say


Di cow in a mi corn (Hey-a)

Say, every morning I gеt up
A what are mi plans?
I take up mi bible, I started to chant
Some Babylon stop mi, mi ask dem weh dem want
Dem ask mi weh mi work, 'round a plant
Dem ask mi who mi live with, mi tell 'em
"Mi aunt"
Mi build up mi house, but di verandah
It slant
Mi pants nah no patch, mi pants nah no dull

Say, Babylon, say, leave mi, make mi gwan

Mi deejay fi mi God, an' mi deejay fi mi king
Mi deejay fi mi God, an' mi deejay fi mi king
Jah man
Mi never see so much-a dangerous ting
For, some time mi dive
An' a some time mi swim
For, some time mi deejay
An' a some time mi sing
Mi eat up mi potato, an' mi eat up to di skin
Mi want sex di queen, an' mi want rob di king

Dis a one, a keep you rockin' an' swing

Say, every morning I get up
A what are mi plans?
I take up di bible, I started to chant
Some Babylon stop mi, mi ask dem weh dem want
Dem ask mi weh mi work, 'round a plant
Dem ask mi who mi live with, mi tell 'em
"Mi aunt"
Mi build up mi house, mi verandah, it slant
Mi pants nah no patch-a, mi pants nah no dull

Mi say, Babylon, say, leave mi, make mi gwan
Mister Demus come fi tell 'em weh you gwan
Sheep in a mi meadow, mi say
Cow in a mi corn for, when mi come a dance
Mi a go nice up chi land
Mi talk through di mic, on to di steel hand
(Hey-a) for mi say, what we a give get dem
In a different style-a
Jah man, Jah man, Jah man
Cah mi is a disciplined child
Dem really cyaan stop mi from go a Three Mile
For, every each a year, dem a fly up dem kite

Every morning I get up, said-a
What are mi plans?
Take up di bible an' I started to chant
Some Babylon stop mi, mi ask dem weh dem want
Dem ask mi weh mi work, 'round a plant
Dem ask mi who mi live with, mi tell 'em
"Mi aunt"
Mi build up mi house, but mi verandah
It slant
Mi pants nah no patch-a, mi pants nah no dull

Mi say, Babylon, say, leave mi, make mi gwan
Say, mister Demus come to tell
'em weh you gwan go tell you
Mister Demus from a dusk 'til dawn (Hey-a)

Mi say, mi deejay fi mi God-a
Mi deejay fi mi king-a jah man
Mi never see so much-a dangerous ting-a
Mi know mi cyaan dive, mi know mi cyaan swim
For, some time mi deejay, say
Some time mi sing
Mi eat up mi potato, mi eat up to di skin
Mi want sex di queen-a, mi want rob di king-a
For, any girl we we get a wash-over ring
Mi say, no plane cyaan fly without a engine
We like di girls fat-a
A we no like di girls slim-a
For, when dem too slim
Mi do a whole heap of ting

Every morning I get up, a what are mi plan?
I take up mi bible, I started to chant
Some Babylon stop mi, mi ask dem weh dem want
Dem ask mi weh mi work, 'round a plant
