Get up Edina

Get up Edina, a let me tell you now

Get up Edina

Get up Edina, girl

I said to get up Edina

I said to get up Edina, girl

I send you a school, you won't learn

I send you a church, you won't hear

I'm gonna send you back to your mama's house

I'm gonna send you back to your papa's house

I'm gonna send you back where you come from

I said to go home, go home, Edina

I said to get up Edina, girl

Because you wait up, Edina, girl

I said to get up Edina

Because you wait up, Edina, girl

I said to come out, Edina

Because you wait up, Edina, girl

Get up Edina

Get up Edina, girl

I said to come out, Edina

Because you wait up, Edina, girl

I send you a school, you won't learn

I send you a church, you won't hear

I'm gonna send you back to your mama's house

I'm gonna send you back to your papa's house

Uncle, come take her away, I don't want to see her no more

I said to get out, Edina

Get out, Edina, girl

I am a sending you back to your mama's house

I am a sending you back to your papa's house

Because you wait up, Edina girl

I say you down a di gully...
