Yellowman, Fathead - I'm Getting Divorced lyrics
[Yellowman, Fathead - I'm Getting Divorced lyrics]
"Then Yellowman, why you divorce Susan, eh?"
Bwoy, Fathead I can't take it no longer
I just can't take it no longer, seen?
Bwoy, she a ruin mi life, bwoy
I'm getting divorced in the evening
Boof! Baff! Susan get a lot of beating
"Why?!" me give her plenty money to
Look after mi yellow baby
So, take me to the family court on time
But listen, man
Me dress up inna jacket, me dress up inna tie
As me reach the court, the girl a tell lie
The judge say
"I know you never loved that guy"
Then tell me, your honour
Why she married I and I?
Put her in the kitchen to fry some chicken
Put her in the kitchen to boil some rice
When me see what she do me bawl
Jesus Christ! She burned up the chicken and
Go curry the rice!
I'm getting divorced in the evening
Boof! Baff! Susan get a lot of beating
Me give her plenty money to
Look after the yellow baby
So, take me to the family court on time
But listen, man
Mi one Susan, she have plenty man
She have 3 of them weh live a Portland
Say, one a, Norman, one a them a, Byron
And one a them a soldier inna Up-Park camp
Me pack up mi thing and go through the door
Me wave my hand and say, "Goodbye, Susan!"
Say, as me reach the gate
You hear she sing one song:
"Come back darling! Give me another try!
Woii yoii! And me will satisfy!"
You know?
I'm getting divorced in the evening
Boof! Baff! Susan get a lot of beating
"Tell me why!" me give her plenty money to
Buy feeding and some nappies
As night come, she gone lef' the yellow baby
But listen, man
Me love Susan 'til me go a obeah man
Me love Susan 'til me go a obeah man
The obeah man say
"I beg you stretch out your hand"
Me stretch out mi hand and
Then he read my palm
Him open the Bible, him read one Psalms
Him say, "Yellowman
I gwan tell you weh deh gwan
Fathead and fi your woman, them just gone!"
Me no want! Me no want!
Wha' Fathead nyam and lef'!
Me no want! Me no want!
Wha' Fathead nyam and lef'! Why?!
Fathead walk a mile and a
Half inna your gungo walk lord
Fathead walk a mile and a
Half inna your gungo walk know why?
I'm getting divorced in the evening
Boof! Baff! Susan get a lot of beating
Me give her plenty money to
Look after mi yellow baby
So, take me to the family court on time
But listen, man
Bwoy, Fathead I can't take it no longer
I just can't take it no longer, seen?
Bwoy, she a ruin mi life, bwoy
I'm getting divorced in the evening
Boof! Baff! Susan get a lot of beating
