Etty in a room a cry
Mama say she must wipe her eye
Papa say he no fi foolish
Like she never been to school at all
It is no wonder
It's a perfect pander
While they were dancing in that barroom last night
Johnson in a room a fret
Uncles say he must hold up him head
Aunty say he no fi foolish like him no time for him wedding day
It is no wonder, it's a perfect pander
While they were dancing in that bar room last night
They were sweet and dandy
One more time for the wedding cake
Plenty bottle of cola wine
All the people them a dress up in a white
Fi go eat off Johnson's wedding cake
It is no wonder
It's a perfect pander
While they were dancing in that bar room last night
They were sweet and dandy
