Monica Du Du

Mighty Sparrow

[Verse 1]
Monica dou dou
No woman in the world sweeter than you
Monica dou dou
No woman in the world sweeter than you
You sweeter than Gwendoline
You sweeter than Madeline
Girl, you sweet like a honey comb
I don't see why your husband doesn't stay home

[Chorus]
"Me ain't know me dear," she said
"Like the man ain't care
This mister does leave me here alone
For weeks he don't come home
I have to depend on me seaman friend
When the seaman friend bring a friеnd
Is then I have cash to spend"

[Verse 2]
"Darling that's a shamе
Your husband is the only one to blame
He shouldn't get on so
A women like you he shouldn't let go
You may not have quality
But you got personality
Your husband stupid like hell
If was me I ain't letting a next man smell"

[Chorus]
"Me ain't know me dear 'bout that
Like the man ain't care
This mister does leave me here alone
For weeks he don't come home
I have to depend on me seaman friend
And if the seaman friend bring a friend
Is then I have cash to spend"

[Verse 3]
Then she said to me:
"Sparrow, I think I making a baby
But I don't know who
Is the father or who to give it to"
She want me to help she out
But I planning to back out
So I turn around and ask she flat
What she think she husband go say 'bout that

So she tell me:

[Chorus]
"Me ain't know me dear, the man he ain't care
This mister does leave me here alone
For weeks he don't come home
I have to depend on me seaman friend
When me seaman friend bring a friend
Is then I have cash to spend"

[Verse 4]
One day she come by me
Quite way, I living down Petit Valley
So we drink and thing
Then all suddenly she started questioning:
"How much children you have? How much women you have?"
"No children, I expecting one"
She jump and then ask where the mother gone

So I tell she:

[Chorus]
"Me ain't know me dear, like the girl ain't care
This women does leave me here alone
For days she don't come home
I have to depend on meh next girl friend
When me next girl friend work on she boyfriend
Then I get cash to spend"
Oh yeah!
