Intro:
(x2)
Verse 1:
Why, why, People Funny Bwoy?
Now that you reach the top; and you turn Big Shot.
All I have done for you; you not re-member that.
When you were down an out; I used to help you out.
But now that you win jack-pot; you don t re-member that.
Now that you turn Big Shot; bwoy, you ave big chat.
Bridge 1:
You re lucky, you re lucky, you re lucky, to have rice, and peas a-yard.
But me, poor me, don t have none at all.
I want-a, I want-a, I want-a, I want-a, I want-a uh iya yard tonight.
I want-a, I want-a, I want-a, I want-a, I want-a uh iya yard tonight.
