Boxing Match In Patois
Boxing match in Patois
de warm blood splash on me face
me was startle
wid de blood all over
de place
me lookin out for police

but is legal (no disgrace)
ding dong de bell go wild
all dey people like a child
dem
shoutin and dey take dey booze
dey hit anyone dey choose
me get up to go, no want dey
boxin show, no more dance around the ring
to do dey blood splashing ting
me short,me glove,me tie-up shoe
up to attic dey all go
me boy no more dey boxing dude
now dey rum and pot of food
