I know you like it when
We just kool and hold a vibe
So don't fight it

Girl let's take a day off
Call in to work sick
Come get this good love
Tell di boss say you cyah mek it
And nobody haffe know
Say you really just laid up

Let's take the day off
Baby so you can
Forward the work to me

Hey girl
Wherever you wanna go 
We can ride
With you by my side
All I need is a light.. let's
Get high, get high
Cruise the coastline
Lose track a di time (ohhh) 
It's hard to ignore how you so fine
I can make you feel like the old times
I'm yours if you wanna be mine
Kill me wid di style and rhyme

Nothing stressful like routine work flow
Pack yuh bag dem my girl and let's go
Where are we headed?

Tell di boss say yuh nah guh mek it
And nobody haffe know
Say you really just laid up
Here with me
Let's take the day off
Baby so you can
Forward the work to me
