Cowboy Melo

Mighty Sparrow

[Verse 1]
Have you seen Lord Melody?
The police are making inquiry please
If you see the Boo Boo man
Get in touch with the nearest police station
I hear he have a big maintenance case
Causing a sensation in the place
A cow in the country make a baby just like Melody

[Chorus]
I didn't believe so I start to laugh
Ah say you lie Mr. De Windt
But I couldn't deny when I see the calf
It was Melo in print

[Verse 2]
Now it's a hell of a question
Nobody ain't know what's his intention
We don't know if he intend to get shе
Settle down and raise a family
So thеn the superintendent said
We go put a big reward on he head
Reward was a thousand five
They say we want this cowboy alive

[Chorus]
I didn't believe so I start to laugh
Ah say you lie Mr. De Windt
But I couldn't deny when I see the calf
It was Melo in print

[Verse 3]
The police and them don't know
Boo Boo Mel slipperier than an ochro
They only wasting their time
They could never, never catch him for the crime
They should inform the radio
Put a notice in the papers also
Then sit back and take it cool
To catch this ferocious bull

[Chorus]
I didn't believe so I start to laugh
Ah say you lie Mr. De Windt
But I couldn't deny when I see the calf
It was Melo in print

[Verse 4]
It is real discouraging
Nowadays with the things that's happening
Although I'm not to blame
He is meh friend and Lord ah feeling shame
The police done question me
Ah tell them me ain't know and me ain't see
But watching the baby alone
You must know is Melo own

[Chorus]
But I didn't believe so I start to laugh
Ah say you lie Mr. De Windt
But I couldn't deny when I see the calf
It was Melo in print
