A long time now mi lef Jamaica
A long time since mi guh bak,
Mi mis di likkle jubi wid di tite-up shorts
An' di one dem inna di see-through frock.
Mi wish mi coulda dedeh wid unnu everyday
Mi wish mi coulda cum bak home,
But di money up ya kin'a sweet sometime
An' more money mek it easier fi mi roam.
Mi nah seh mi would'n cum bak deh cum live
'Cause mi know yard sweet all di while,
But wen mi tink 'bout di easy life,
Bwoy, america really mek mi spwile.
Anyway, afta so much years, mi deh weh too long
Mi really hafi cum look fi unnu soon,
Normally mi woulda cum dung inna di summa
But mi cyan badda wait 'til June.
Suh Air Jamaica, book a seat fi mi yaa,
If not mi wi jump 'pon AA,
Mi really nuh plan fi spen' nuh 'eap a money
When mi can fly wan nedda way.
