Lyrics

Alright Yep-a, Etty in a room a cry My mama say she must wipe her eye Papa say, "She no fi foolish Like she never been to school at all!" It is no wonder It's a perfect ponder While they were dancing In that bar room last night Johnson in the room a-fret Uncle say he must hold up him head Aunty say, "She no fi foolish Like there's no time for his wedding day!" It is no wonder It's a perfect ponder While they were dancing In that bar room last night One pound 10 for the wedding cake And plenty bottle of cola wine All the people them dress up in a white Fi go eat out Johnson wedding cake It is no wonder It's a perfect ponder While they were dancing In that bar room last night Yep-a, Etty in a room a cry Mama say she must wipe her eye Papa say, "She no fi foolish Like she never been to school at all!" It is no wonder It's a perfect ponder While they were dancing In that bar room last night Johnson in the room a-fret Uncle say he must hold up him head Aunty say, "She no fi foolish Like there's no time for his wedding day!" It is no wonder It's a perfect ponder While they were dancing In that bar room last night One pound 10 for the wedding cake And plenty bottle of cola wine All the people them dress up in a white Fi go eat out Johnson wedding cake It is no wonder It's a perfect ponder While they were dancing In that bar room last night Well, but they were sweet and dandy Sweet and dandy Sweet and dandy Sweet and dandy Sweet and dandy Sweet and dandy Sweet and dandy Oh, and dandy It was sweet and dandy It was sweet and dandy It was sweet and dandy It was sweet and dandy It was sweet and dandy Sweet and dandy
