Errol Dunkley described that O.K Fred is a song about a young man who has no cares who gets a ‘society girl’ to fall in love him through his charisma and charm.
“She admires the way of Fred. Live him life! He don’t watch the crowd or watch the Jones. You might see man looking shabby or undres' but...
[Chorus]
Ok Fred, now you're a yaga yaga
Ok Fred, bully for you
Ok Fred, now you're a yaga yaga
I wanna be one too
Ok Fred, now I'm a yaga yaga
Ok Fred, what do I do?
Ok Fred, now I'm a yaga yaga
I am just like you
[Verse]
She said, like the way that you do it
When you do it on the quit
She say, like the way that you move
I like the way that you groove, she said
[Chorus]
Ok Fred, now you're a yaga yaga
Ok Fred, bully for you
Ok Fred, now you're a yaga yaga
I wanna be one too
She said, ok Fred, now I'm a yaga yaga
Ok Fred, what do I do?
Ok Fred, now I'm a yaga yaga
I am just like you, she said...
[Interlude]
[Outro]
Ok Fred, now you're a yaga yaga
Ok Fred, bully for you
She said, like the way that you do it
When you do it on the quit
I like the way that you groove, she said
She say, like that you move...
