Poem
I hear that a girl in Trinidad Looking for a very good husband My brother says she father rich Will give me house and land Well I must admit I thought This sounds like a good plan So I decide go to Trinidad And become she loving husband When the plane land in the airport It was getting kind of late So we drive straight to her house And we pack up by the front gate We see the girl from the window And we find her looking nice Ah tell myself I make up my mind I don’t need to think twice Then we hear a fellar crying hard Next door in a hammock First time I hear a man bawl and cry So I was kind of shock My brother say boy see that man He has some serious tabanca He maybe likes some girl And get run by she father Turns out the feller next door Well he wants to marry she But she father says they poor And they don’t have no money So he trying to get a man From America to come down here But he really don’t know in America Most of the men does live on welfare Now I feeling bad for the feller Because he really love her bad How can I marry the girl he love And take her away from Trinidad But what if I don’t marry she now And the father finds a next man This poor feller might get a piece of rope And hang his self in the cocoa land So I say yes I want to marry she I love her from head to tail But he only way I marrying we must Come out side cover up with a veil Well we take the feller san Fernando We walk in ram mohess tailoring I Said make us two identical suits We have to go to a set up wedding The feller wears the suit And he comes through the window The pundit ready for the wedding to start So he wears the veil and walk out the door All the father rich friends from Trinidad Gathered for the wedding day But when he see is the poor man she marry He gets heart attack and faint away Well to make a long story short The next time I when to Trinidad I see she father with two grandchildren Playing foot ball in the back yard
