People Funny Boy

Why, why people funny, boy?
Why, why people funny, boy?

Now that you reach the top and you turn big shot
All I have done for you, you don't remember that
When you were down and out, I used to help you out
But now that you win jackpot, you don't remember that
Now that you turn big shot, boy, you have big chat
You're lucky, you're lucky, you're lucky to have rice and peas a yard
But me, poor me, don't have none at all

I want-a, I want-a, I want-a, I want-a
I want-a uh i-yah yard tonight
I want-a, I want-a, I want-a, I want-a
I want-a uh i-yah yard tonight
I want-a, I want-a, I want-a, I want-a
I want-a uh i-yah yard tonight
