She's Like The Roses

Hear Mi Now

Hear Mi Now...

Mama say, a clean woman always,

Keepeth a clean house

Need no service from mickey nor mouse

Listen Up ey...

Ah never put you in the fortune or fame

Yes ah surely need you even when you wear da chains

It doesn't matter you hear, you nah lame

Benghi man will neva stop callin your name

I know you when I see you anywhere

Character and yuh dressings always gone clear

Ah good thing say mama also taught me how to care

as long as she clean conscious and fair

[CHORUS:]

She's like the roses, the enemy approach

Pretty without the lipstick pon yuh mouth

Rastaman say naturally yours

and ah cleanliness benghi want in thine house

She's like the roses, the enemy approach

Pretty without makeup or lipstick pon your mouth

Yo hear the youths dem ah shout

Yes ah Royal Nation growing inna d house

Ey, ah never see yuh on the streets or the post

Her ways are totally different from those

Yes always attending at her own

Ever splendid from her head down to her toe

No other man can take off her clothes

Infront d youths no nakedness doh expose

[CHORUS:]

Ever splendid with no lipstick pon her mouth ey
