Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah
[Verse 2]
You think I never see you when you jump over de wall
You think I never see you when you accidentally fall
Me said a it mek, mek you pop you bitter gall
A it mek, while you accidentally fall
A it mek, hear she crying out fi ice water
[Verse 3]
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah
[Verse 4]
I check you out and you're cold, girl
I dig you out and you're cold, girl
Rock it to me children
[Verse 5]
I told you once and I told you twice
Why, sweet nanny goat a go run him belly good
Me said a it mek, mek you pop you bitter gall
A it mek, while you accidentally fall
A it mek, hear she crying out fi ice water
[Verse 6]
I check you out and you're cold, girl
I dig you out and you're cold, girl
Rock it to me, children
[Verse 7]
I told you once and I told you twice
Why, sweet nanny goat a go run him belly good
Me said a it mek, mek you pop you bitter gall
A it mek, while you accidentally fall
A it mek, hear she crying out fi ice water
[Verse 8]
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah
