This one is for my city girls

I'm wondering if you'll get with me girl

Country youth, enuh

Yea yea

My lady lemme hold you now

I don't wanna hold you down

Come to me lemme show you 'round

I know, I'm from the country take you outta town

You naa go wa fi go back home

My baby lemme hold you now

I don't wanna hold you down

Come to me lemme show you 'round

I know, I'm from the country take you outta town

You naa go wa fi go back home

Let me take you from a place where

Politicians they don't play fair

Brainwash di youth dem from the daycare

I speak of youths because a few is what we may share

'Cause me and you, we can make a truly great pair

Me love your mind and your body too

Down to every molecule

Stand firm inna your solitude

Me woulda love fi you combine with me

That would really put my mind at ease

My lady lemme hold you now

I don't wanna hold you down

Come to me, lemme show you 'round

I know, I'm from the country take you outta town

You naa go wa fi go back home

My baby lemme hold you now

I don't wanna hold you down

Come to me lemme show you 'round

I know, I'm from the country take you outta town

You naa go wa fi go back home

Me say ya eyes pretty like

The light inna di city night

And a you me want fi see tonight

Me say you hotter than the gritty, I

Wonder if you would accept this water that is bubbling up in my chillum pipe

Me waa fi see you prosper inna wa you do

But me haffi follow through, honor you

You need fi tell me wa you wanna do

My little lady lemme hold you now

I don't wanna hold you down

Come to me, lemme show you 'round

I know, I'm from the country take you outta town

You naa go wa fi go back home

My baby lemme hold you now

I don't wanna hold you down

Come to me, lemme show you 'round

I know, I'm from the country take you outta town

You naa go wa fi go back home

You so divine inna your essence

Mi love your effervescence

You full me up a blessings

Mama Yashi when you dressing

You destined for peace by the speech you addressing me with

And everything you do I see fit

A you alone the Rasta man a sleep with

So long as we stick together, we rich together

No fish, no feathers

No deaders so we syncing better

This ya ship ya no

Baby girl come lemme hold you now

I don't wanna hold you down

Come to my city lemme show you 'round

I know, I'm from the country take you outta town

You naa go wa fi go back home

My lady lemme hold you now

I don't wanna hold you down

Come to my city lemme show you 'round

I know, I'm from the country, take you outta town

You naa go wa fi go back home

Saint Elizy a mi dwelling place

Sometimes dem nuh have no bread in plate

Hungry belly but dem celebrate

Life and meditate, ites and elevate

We na go church but me woulda love a wedding day

'Cause if them violate, 'cause we moving at a higher rate

Di warriors will make the fire blaze

'Cause Selassie I we praise

This love will never expiring

No need for you to ever shy away

Baby lemme hold you now

I don't wanna hold you down

Come to me lemme show you 'round

I know, I'm from the country take you outta town

You naa go wa fi go back home

My baby lemme hold you now

I don't wanna hold you down

Come to my village lemme show you 'round

I know, I'm from the country take you outta town

You naa go wa fi go back home

My lady lemme hold you now

Don't wanna hold you down

Lemme show you 'round

I know, I know
