Re: lyrics

some a dem lyrics yaa a kill me,

<span style="font-weight: bold">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, he's a perfect partner,
While they were dancing,
In that ballroom last night.

Johnson in a room, a fret,
Uncle say he must hold up him head.
Auntie say he no fi foolish,
Like it's not time for his wedding day.
It is no wonder, he's a perfect partner,
While they were dancing,
In that ballroom last night.

One pound ten for the wedding cake,
Plenty bottle of cola wine.
All the people them dress up in a white,
Fi go eat off Johnson's wedding cake.
It is no wonder, he's a perfect partner.
While they were dancing,
In that ballroom last night.

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, he's a perfect partner,
While they were dancing,
In that ballroom last night.

Johnson in a room, a fret,
Uncle say he must hold up him head.
Auntie say he no fi foolish,
Like it's not time for his wedding day.
It is no wonder, he's a perfect partner,
While they were dancing,
In that ballroom last night.

One pound ten for the wedding cake,
Plenty bottle of cola wine.
All the people them dress up in a white,
Fi go eat off Johnson's wedding cake.
It is no wonder, he's a perfect partner.
While they were dancing,
In that ballroom last night.

They were sweet and dandy..
Sweet and dandy..
