Intro: Buju Banton
Love up di woman dem excess, I will comfort you nothin less
Reassure you and cure you, hear me now dawta
If your thirsty I am ready to give you water
Drink at my fountain, feel rejuvenated mon, love har again
Hear this now girl child!!!
Chorus: Nadine Sutherland
What I'm gonna do if you break my heart
Be unkind you would a tear me apart
What I'm gonna do what I'm gonna do baby
What I'm gonna do what I'm gonna do
With you I really wanna take a step
But if anything go happen, a mi a get left
What I'm gonna do what I'm gonna do baby
What I'm gonna do what I'm gonna do
Verse 1: Buju Banton
Yo! Woman on the path of love were about to embark
It's like this feeling tearing me apart
Girl I promise to cherish you like the life I have
Never disrespected as there's a God
Baby girl you can trust me know I'm for real
Never let insecurity stop the way you feel
I could never live without you girl and that's the real
No matter how rough it feel
Chorus: Nadine Sutherland
What I'm gonna do if you break my heart
Be unkind you would a tear me apart
What I'm gonna do what I'm gonna do baby
What I'm gonna do what I'm gonna do
With you I really wanna take a step
But if anything go happen, a mi a get left
What I'm gonna do what I'm gonna do baby
What I'm gonna do what I'm gonna do
Verse 2: Buju Banton
Could say a thousand words but three would be fine
I love you girl you are mine
As sure as the sun we must intertwine
Feel the beat of my heart I know it's genuine
To hurt you girl it's not an aim of mine
Keep givin your lovin to me all the time
Let me reassure you settle your mind
Discuss it at a later time

Feel so vulnerable my heart tremble cushion me when I fall
Chorus: Nadine Sutherland
What I'm gonna do if you break my heart
Be unkind you would a tear me apart
