Lyrics Lucy Garden - The Mighty Sparrow

Big ad in the paper
Lucy wanted a gardener
Big, big ad in the paper
Lucy wanted a gardener
So I made my application
If you see the lovely woman
And she wasn't making joke
As I enter the yard she put me to work

She tell me to water the garden
(Sparrow water the garden)
You should ah see how ah pose
When ah grab out the hose
(To water the garden)

Lucy garden
Lucy garden
Lucy garden
Lucy garden
Lucy garden

Ah ha, well quite in Jamaica
Sparrow gone as a gardener
Oh Lord, ah working hard
Ah want to come back to Trinidad
Then Miss Lucy turn and tell me
She like to see she garden well watery
Ah wet it good, and how you don't know
In a couple months she plants start to grow

She tell me to water the garden
(Sparrow water the garden)
You should ah see how ah pose
When ah reel out the hose
(To water the garden)

Lucy garden
I like it, Lucy garden
Lucy garden
You mustn't doubt me

Look at big confusion
Lucy grab the hose in she hand
"Let it go" ah said
She said not if ah kill she dead
Darling have some sympathy
I don't like people take advantage on me
She say "Sparrow I know you finish work
Come leave the hose in the garden dey, let it soak"

She say "water the garden"
(Sparrow water the garden)
You should ah see how ah pose
When ah reel out the hose...

Lucy garden
That girl say
Lucy garden

Ah ha, I decide to go
Lucy hold me and tell me no
I decide to stop
When ah see she husband was coming up
Then she turn 'round and tell me flat
She say that she husband ain't go vex for that
It look as if what she say was true
The husband want meh water he garden too

He say "Sparrow water me garden, please"
(Sparrow water the garden)
You should ah see how ah pose
When ah drag out the hose
And I wet him from head to toe
But I like it...

Lucy garden
Lucy garden
Outside!
