Nicodemus - Wife And Sweetheart (12" Mix) lyrics

While Nico playing shack-attack
A whether you white, a whether you black
For, some in a pants an' some in a frock
When I play my shack-attack, I said
I want you fi rock
When I tell you dis a one
It come fi nice up di top

Mi wife an' mi sweetheart are friend
Jah man, mi say
Mi wife an' mi sweetheart are friend
Say, that's di ongle way
Di jealousness will end
Say, one live at five an' a one live at ten
Say, one name Mary, di other one name Gwen
Mi buy one a house over Cockburn Pen
Di nеxt one, say, she live ovеr
Mi get two children Jack and Millicent
Say, one live at Portland
One live at May Pen mi father make di ink
But him cyaan make di pen
An' every lion have fi sneak a to dem den
An', tell you, every goat
Dem have fi sit in a dem pen

For, mi say, five an' five
Are ten, for mi say, six an' four are ten
Say, eight an' two are ten, for mi say
Seven an' three are ten

No virgin no have sex again

Leads di way come down a May
You fi dally 'round di bell
I want you tell it to your friend

Cah, mi wife an' mi sweetheart are friend

Say, one name Mary, di other one name Gwen

Jah man, mi say, no virgin no have sex again
For, as dem a ten, dem a look a boyfriend

For, mi say
Black is di color of di African skin
Say, black is di color of di African skin
I don't lost mi lover up a Constant Spring
But mi take 'way di queen from di king

Say, no plane cyaan fly without a engine
Say, no bird cyaan fly pon one wing
