Sweet and Dandy

Etty in a room a cry
Mama say she must wipe her eye
Papa say she no fi foolish like she never been to school at all
It is no wonder
He's a perfect partner
While they were dancing in that ballroom last night
Johnson in a room a fret
Uncle say he must hold up him head
Auntie say he no fi foolish like it's not time for his wedding day
It is no wonder
He's a perfect partner
While they were dancing in that ballroom last night
One pound ten for the wedding cake
Plenty bottle of cola wine
All the people them dress up in a white fi go eat off Johnson's wedding cake
It is no wonder
He's a perfect partner
While they were dancing in that ballroom last night
They were sweet and dandy
