Intro:
Yeah...
Chorus:
Woman a scream and a boogie down pon di dance floor
A ask di selector fi more
Compultory mek yuh hear a shot bus' fi sure
Because di place full up a hardcore
Man and woman have fun although wi poor
Nuff mouth get fed and gun haffi store
How di hell yuh fi waan' only mek noise when a music mek nuff skull nuh bore ?
Verse 1:
Ask them!
Have you ever tek a tracks dung a Brayton...
Fi hear Classics sound a boogie down?
Di same people politics operate music mek dem all gather round
Well, yuh nuh si this dancehall business gone to zero
Every champion sound ina di business tun disco
Yuh nuh have nuh more King champion sound outta road weh a play weh fi bus nuh more hero
How some guys wonder how yuh hear bout Johnny Ringo?

Chorus
Verse 2:
Well hey...

But music haffi ina di place....yes

After reggae music just tek over France
Poor people media and food for substance
Check Sunsplash for instance....but
