Talk like a champion

Buju B would be more than glad to take your hand
And lead you to the Promise Land in my twenty foot divan
All you got to do is be true, so let's correspond
Satisfy your emotions
Hot off ah di press, instantly she buss
She nuh old and tough and she nuh got on no rust
Skin smooth and precious like she never get a cut
Pants front ah expand I've got to haul and pull up
Giddy up, me haffi get you is a must
King Kong walk like a champion

Put on yuh clothes, it's like a display
Man ah swear and ah stare both night and day
Could you be my honey? Y'ah di woman lay lay
With a gorgeous smile on her face and say
