Chilling with my lightie from Dominica
There's bare gyal up in this room is this Ibiza
But she can bruck it up like the one from Montego
Step up in the club, I need a drink baby
A bit of Hennessey I'm tryna get wavy
I ain't got time for games so don't try play me

My swag is prolific from toe to my neck
I don't have to earn no respect
She bussing for free then I give to my friend

So baby girl quit all the wahala
Come 'round and come take this kasava
I know she wan chop my monyana
Please just don't wake up your grandmamma
Roll in roll like she badder than bad
Body too thick so I can tell why
Giving her the ting anytime she come by

Body dripping sweat but mi not done yet

Your man get smoked like ganjah
Wait, don't she know I'm from the estate

Baby girl, quit all the banter
Come round and come take this banana
Body dripping sweat but mi not done yet
someone tell her cool off, take a fanta
Take time
