The Mighty Sparrow - Three Calypsonians Lyrics

Lyrics Three Calypsonians - The Mighty Sparrow



People are always gossiping
About calypso singing
People always gossiping
About calypso singing
Yesterday I overheard
A big conversation down the road
Well ah laugh 'til ah nearly dead
When some calypso fans jump up and said:
That Lord Melody is only full of mouth
Looking like a Boo-Boo but we like to hear him shout
Lord Christo is very cool in life
But when the Sparrow singing, hold on to you wife
It is so near Carnival
And they want to put me in bacchanal
These people only setting strife
By telling you how to hold you wife
Singing calypso is my work
With everybody I make joke
With married women I don't mingle
But you in trouble if you young, you free and single
So Lord Melody is only full of mouth
Looking like a Boo-Boo but we like to hear him shout
Lord Christo is very cool in life
But when the Sparrow singing, hold on to you wife
Christo have them people fool
By pretending to be cool
When he is on the pavement
Ordinarily he look so innocent
But if you want to know the score
Ask Marjorie and Lenore
I am sorry for poor Crissy
I don't know how he going to pay the maintenance fee
Melody, you're only full of mouth
Looking like a Boo-Boo but we like to hear him shout
Lord Christo you are very cool in life
But when Sparrow singing, hold on to you wife
Melody is the Boo-Boo man
The only one in this island
His calypsoes are very bright
But then he could kill you dead with fright
"Mama, look ah Boo-Boo dey!"
If you see him you sure to faint away
But still for all we like to hear him croon
The creature from Black Lagoon
Oh Lawd!
Melody is only full of mouth
Looking like a Boo-Boo but we like to hear him shout
Lord Christo is very cool in life
When Sparrow singing, hold on to you wife
