A Little Fun Is Good
When down San Fernando
See my cousin on Coffee Street
I said “hey what’s up cousin
Been a long time we haven’t meet
“Man you change your number
tell me How have you been?
The last time I saw you
Was at rianna and Mackie wedding
Then we take a bus ride
Going to maracas beach
Drink out a six pack
By the time we reach
Under a coconut tree
We watching girls passing by
try to talk to one
She said “don’t even try
We know Sometimes
A little communication is good
Time and distance
Can be misunderstood
Went to see my brother
Down penal at powergen
Hey”long time no see brother”
How is the wife and children?
Soon after lunch
We went to shoot some pool
Then hang out in the gallery
Until the kids come from school
Time to leave now
Walking out of the gate
My sister in law gives me some food
To take home in a plate
We know Sometimes
You got to go see your family
Because blood is thicker than water
We all are leaves from the same tree
Me and my brothers
We all get in Rogers car
and Visit the families
From Indian trail to marabella
And in the evening
We gone to lime in la romaine
with bobby ,teddy and daughter
Next week we plan to do it again
We know sometimes
A little fun is good
Because time and distance
Between families can be misunderstood
Sunday morning in 2nd street
Playing cricket and football
Shirley cooking lunch
and Send riad to give us a call
Curry duck and bush up shut
Black label rum and cold beers
Eating drinking and laughing
Sugar boy” says let make a cheer
We know Sometimes
Having a good time is good
This is what we need
Life can be misunderstood
