Come on come on babe,
Let me talk to you.
Come on come on
Baby girl let me talk to you
Ain′t no reason to be shy, Ma.
It's just Vilx and AC
I′ve wantin' to this a long time.
Now I got the perfect opportunity to, listen

Ou konnen lanmou sa a pap janm fini
Ou pa bezwen gen dout, ou pa bezwen gen.
Ou konnen lanmou sa a se pou lavi
Ou pa bezwen gen dout.
Ou pa bezwen gen
Ou konnen lanmou sa a pap janm mouri.
Ou pa bezwen gen dout. Ou a bezwen gen
Ou konnen lanmou sa pou lenfini.
Non! Ou pa bezwen gen. Ou pa bezwen gen

Tankou yon trezo k' kache
Trezo kache
Ki fe tout moun reve
Riches ou gen nan ke ou.
Se li cheri ki sous bone m′
Ou konnen lanmou sa a pap janm fini
Ou pa bezwen gen dout, ou pa bezwen gen
Yo met sote ponpe sote ponpe.
Se ou menm sel mwen vle
Move tan met soufle.
Pa gen anyen k′ap separe n'

Come on come on babe.
Let me talk to you
Come on come eon
Baby girl let me talk to you
Better yet, I′m gonna let me
The guitar talk to you
Come on come on babe.
Let me talk to you
Come on come on.
Baby girl let me talk to you
Makarios ya killin' em, man

Ou fe ou fe ou fe ou fe mwen delala.
Got me goin′ krazy.
Fe m' mache opa
Got me goin′ krazy
Mwen toujou sousa
Got me goin' krazy
Mwen we lalin cheri gwo midi.
Soley la gwo lanwit.
Jounen mwen tet anba
Cheri li tet anba a wi li tet anba.
Yon valeryann pasi
Yon kout volan a dwat.
Pou jan ou vire cheri.
Se nan bra ou m'ateri

Ou fe ou fe ou fe mwen delala
Fe m′ mache opa, mwen toujou sousa

Mwen benyen ko ou ak month.
Chak month m′di ou tounen fle
Ou benyen ke m'ak lo.
Hush little bay don′t say a word
Pap's gonna giv u everythin you deserve.
See, lil mama you the love of my life
For you, no second guessin.
I don′t think twice

U turnin' me on, ou mete m′sou sa
U turnin' me on, ou mete m'sou sa
U turnin′ me on, ou mete m′sou sa

An nou di mesi, an nou di mesi
An nou di mesi lanmou
Pou tout sa l' pote pou nou
Pou jan ke li fe nou fou.
Li ede n′kenbe.
Li ede n'mache
Li ede n′reve doudou.




An nou di l' mesi
An nou di l′ mesi tande
