Songtexte People Funny Boy - Lee "Scratch" Perry

Why, why people funny bwoy

Now that you reach the top

An' you turn big shot

All I have done for you

You not remember that

When you were down an' out

I used to help you out

But now that you win jackpot

You don't remember that

Now that you turn big shot

Bwoy you 'ave big chat

You're lucky, you're lucky,

You're lucky to have rice and peas a yard

But me, poor me don't have none at all

I want-a, I want-a, I want-a, I want-a,

I want-a uh i-yah yard tonïght

I want-a, I want-a, I want-a, I want-a,

I want-a uh i-yah yard tonïght

I want-a, I want-a, I want-a, I want-a,

I want-a uh i-yah yard tonïght

Why, why people funny bwoy

Now that you reach the top

An' you turn big shot

All I have done for you

You not remember that

When you were down an' out

I used to help you out

But now that you win jackpot

You don't remember that

Now that you turn big shot

Bwoy you 'ave big chat

You're lucky, you're lucky,

You're lucky to have rice and peas a yard

But me, poor me don't have none at all

I want-a, I want-a, I want-a, I want-a,

I want-a uh i-yah yard tonïght

I want-a, I want-a, I want-a, I want-a,

I want-a uh i-yah yard tonïght

I want-a, I want-a, I want-a,
