Wooyy, yeaay!

Good woman, respect yourself,

Be proud of yourself, neva sell yourself.

You're black and beautiful with your ivory smile,

Don't give away yourself until di land is fertile.

Before a bwoy get it affi walk thousand miles,

And put di application right 'pon top all di while.

You're precious and pretty, you no need to run wild,

You're always in control cah yuh no Satan child.

Nuff a dem love always leggo di caat,

Dem cunk kool well use more than a restaurant pot.

Nuff a dem uglier than a likkle rat bat,

But still a trick di dawgs dem with dem little dog trap.

Good girl, don't be like dem,

You cunk kool well tight not use like dem.

Man ?? observe and not crucified like dem,

Your cunk is not a murderer nuh stick like dem.

Good girl, my good girl (good girl)

Good girl, my good girl (good girl)

Good girl, my good girl (good girl)

Good girl, my good girl (good girl)

Well! No make him rather run away like a rabbit.

Man get too bright and pick up monster habbit.

Good woman, beware a dutty you seed,

Cah dutty man seed, mek dutty gyal breed.

Good woman, just give your heart clean,

Just want get purify inna Jah washing machine.

Gyal come out an' shine, don't stand up behind di scene.

You shape like a guitar or a prima Ballerina, ohhh.

Good girl, my good girl (good girl)

Good girl, my good girl (good girl)

Good girl, my good girl (good girl)

Good girl, my good girl (good girl)

(..)

Be a good woman - good, good woman.

Be a good woman - good, good woman.

I can imagine, how beautiful is Africa.

I cyan see how amazing is Jamaica.

Good woman, I see right through your heart.

Good woman, your life will be not short.

If you come from Uptown, or you come from the ghetto

If a ?? you a eat a chedda, I'm glad so.

You still have to be nice.

You still have to shine.

You still have to spice up mi mind.

Good girl, my good girl (good girl)

Good girl, my good girl (good girl)

Good girl, my good girl (good girl)

Good girl, my good girl (good girl)

Be a good woman - good, good woman.

Be a good woman - good, good woman.
