Don't watch those pretty clothes that they wear
That fancy makeup all over their face
They will rob and cheat you
They will make you want to cry
They will rob you
They will rob you
It is a Dennis Brown but I can't find the title and I don't remember if it was his original. I think the original might have even been a minor North American Hit.

It is in one of the lines but I don't think it is the title, but it might well be.
It is one of those songs that were played every night in the dancehall but you really never thought of the official title.
