Woman
Lord Spoon & David Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm crazy
Obsessed with you
Crazy
I don't know what to do
The moment I laid eyes on your cheeks
My heart began to dance
And later I condemned myself
That I didn't take this chance
Woman of my life
Please let me be your man
Woman of my life
Please let me hold your hand
It's true
You don't know anything 'bout me
But true
Is what my love would be
Maybe
I know judging people by looks
Isn't quite the best
Don't worry my imagination
Is doing the rest
Woman of my life
Please let me be your man
Woman of my life
Please let me hold your hand
I pray to the gods to better my odds to see you again
I'll never forget the smile that you let me have
I'll make a step forward, stop being a coward and make a move
And all that I need is a chance to meet you again
Woman of my life
Please let me be your man




Woman of my life
Please let me hold your hand

The man singing the lead call voice is Shirley "Calypso" Williams, the man behind the amazing calypso album "King Bed Bug" (his solo-album) and also the Calypso project known as "Mix Flour and Sugar". I have NO idea where the name Lord Spoon or David came from, but it might have been yet another artist name as most Calypso artists had a name similar to "Lord insert literally ANYTHING here". Well, actually this is in fact a "Mix Flour and Sugar" release, but for some reason the name "Lord Spoon & David" is what it is widely known as today. The other song Lord Spoon & David is affiliated with is "The World on a Wheel", but this is also a "Mix Flour and Sugar" release.

The name 'Lord Spoon and David' was applied for the UK release on Escort, and carried over to the Canadian pressing of the single too. Strangely enough, the other Mix Flour & Sugar single ('Screw the Cock Tight') also had a UK pressing, but on that single the name Mix Flour & Sugar was used, as it should have been. It's a mystery...

@David-zy5yp

Thanks guys :)

@Mathertron

I ripped this from an island records compilation. No idea about tune heritage etc. I just love calypso

@teengenerate08

@Dario Smagata I know this song as the "Mix Four and Sugar" release despite being from Toronto- I first heard this on a CD I bought in San Ignacio, Belize, and I expect it was bootlegged from a Jamaican record

@janejvetej
