Hag ask ’e mammy wha mek sh’ mouth sa long.

Why does the healthy die and the sick live?
Child you gon no.

Mommy why I can’t I have deginer boots like Cindy gets?
Yu don’t know what the Jones does do when yu sleeping!

Mommy can I go out and play?
No! child go and study today.

Mommy why yu didn’t marry some one else?
Child! Then yu won be hay.

Mommy why is the grass green an the sky blue.
Child! Only Gad in heaven knows.

Mommy why I ain’t as pretty as sue?
Child! What nonsense you asking me you ain’t got goat bite.

Mommy do you love Carrie more than me?
Child! Wha non-sense you asking me! I love all my children the same.

Mommy why do we fight wars which don’t bring peace.
Child! No Gad, No peace. Know Gad, Know peace

Mommy why you shedding tears?
Child yu gon no !

Love the Calypso feeling. Reminded me of the songs of The Mighty Panther.
