Verse 1:
Back inna day me an me friend dem used to move ex
Cut and go tru de crew used to flex
Any man we see we waan we jus tek
Gyal talk too hard get ah kick inna she neck well
Couple of times you used to call me pon de phone
Cuss me fi left your husband alone
Ah jus now me fully understand
Why me really need to leave your man
Cuz him refuse to look work so his pockets stay bruck
Cant mash ants but him want to chuck
You say you really love me nah fight dat
Wifey please come tek him back

Chorus:
And you can find im clothes dem pon de lawn
If when you come you nuh see me me gone
'Cause me no love how yuh man ah peform
So, tek him back, wifey, tek him back
Look how me used to brag and show off
Down inna de end you have de last laugh
Even if it means dat mi haffi pop off
You ah go tek him back, wifey, tek him back
You betta tek him (repeat), you haffi tek him back (repeat), you betta tek him back (repeat)

Verse 2:

Ah him friendly wid every piece ah ice imma rock

Verse 3:
Well ah de 1st rule ah shopping
Let de buyer beware
Be careful how yuh tek a gyal man go dere
Yuh might grab someting when she jus about fi dash
Cuz one gyal treasure is anudda gyal trash
Me notice certain likkle trend datta gwaan
Man alwayz look betta inna de nex gyal arms but im neva fail soon as de nex gyal gone
De newness rub off and de man lose de charm

When de clothes dem reach de lawn
You woulda pray to God him pack up and gwaan
Have a cute face but him nah perform so tek him back
Wifey tek him back
Look how me used to brag and show off
Down inna de end you have de last laugh
You haffi tek him bak
