Mae Mae

Mighty Sparrow

[Verse 1]
Making love one day
With a girl they calling Mae Mae
Making love one day
With a girl they calling Mae Mae
Ah pick up Mae Mae by the railway
And we take a taxi straight to Claxton Bay
Before we lay down on the carpet
She start catching fit

[Chorus]
Darling don't bite me
Don't bite me, honey
I never had a man
To ever do that to me
Aye aye aye aye aye doo doo darling
Look me pores raise up
You making me feel weak, weak
Stop! Sparrow stop!

Mae Mae...

[Verse 2]
This time if you see
How she hook me and ah hook she
Like two snakes rolled up
She so deceitful, she bawling "Stop!"
But she like it, I know that
From the way she start to scratch me like a cat
Lemme go, lemme go, lemme go
Oh gosh Sparrow, no no no!

[Chorus]
Darling don't bite me
Don't do that, honey
I never had a man
That ever did that to me
Aye aye aye aye aye doo doo darling
Look me pores raise up
You making me feel so weak
Stop! Sparrow stop!

Mae Mae...

[Verse 3]
When we start to roll
I get sand all in meh nose hole
Sand all in meh eye
And ah getting bite with sandfly
Ah kept on scratching and scratching
All this time I lie, I know people watching
"Wait! Wait, Mae Mae
A sandfly bite me down there!"

[Chorus]
But darling don't bite me
Don't do that, honey
I never had a man
To ever do that to me
Aye aye aye aye aye Sparrow darling
Look me pores raise up
You making me feel so weak
Stop! Sparrow stop! Stop that!

Mae Mae...

[Verse 4]
Trouble now with Mae Mae
Like she want to stay the whole day
When a man finish
I think it's foolish to play lickrish
I tried to get up and tell she
Mae Mae darling the taxi waiting on me
Come girl, keep the rum
When you reach home give your man some

But she bawling:

[Chorus]
Darling you love me?
Please tell me, honey
You know the man I have
Never did that to me
Aye aye aye aye aye doo doo darling
Look me pores raise up
You making me feel so weak
Stop! Sparrow stop!
