[Intro]
It's all about the memories of the dancehall days
We need back those good days man
You know mama and papa used all go a dance
And then all dem old and young dance together
But now listen young bredda, the dancehall gone
Anthony B, mi seh dat's we
[Chorus]
Waan' back wi waterpumpee
We cool an deadly fi go dance with wi lady
Dem ya dance too funky
Make man ya move inna di dance like junkie
Waan' back wi waterpumpee
We cool an deadly fi go dance with wi lady
Dem ya dance too funky
Gunshot ah buss, di youth dem get jumpy
[Verse 1]
Dancehall now is like a disgrace
If yuh think ah joke take a walk inna di place
Inna di corner me see bare screw face
If you ever walk near on man shoes lace
Big bad man ah pop gun off ah waist
Or a Heineken bust inna yuh face;
Nuh leave nah trace
[Chorus]
Waan' back wi waterpumpee
We cool an deadly fi go dance with wi lady
Dem ya dance too funky
Make man ya move inna di dance like junkie
Waan' back wi waterpumpee
We cool an deadly fi go dance with wi ladies
Dem ya dance too funky
Gunshot ah buss, di youth dem get jumpy
[Verse 2]
Inna di seventies dance hall used to nice
Di attendance used to be wi first choice
Those days, dance was a like a paradise
But now dancehall cold like ice
Remember, man youth all go dancehall go throw legs
Sell him peanut, him fried fish an' him cakes
But now ah dancehall yet everybody come ah beg
Ah di easiest place fi yuh dead or man lick yuh head
[Chorus]
Waan' back wi waterpumpee
We cool an deadly fi go dance with wi lady
Dem ya dance too funky
Make man ya move inna di dance like junkie
Waan' back wi waterpumpee
We cool an deadly fi go dance with wi lady
Dem ya dance too funky
Gunshot ah buss, di youth dem get jumpy
[Verse 3]
When yuh come ah dance hall yuh better cool
Remember good reggae music rule
Nuh bring nor have a cutlass nor nuh big tool
Dancehall is no place fi fool, Lawd
With ya gun we had, bwoy you better clean
We nah waan' dem mash-up we dance pon we scene
Come bring yuh queen, if yuh rope in
Or love-a-dub, is yuh and me mean
[Bridge]
Leave de magazine, bwoy leave de magazine
'Ca, Mi seh, we seh we
[Chorus]
Waan' back wi waterpumpee
We cool an deadly fi go dance with wi lady
Dem ya dance too funky
Make man ya move inna di dance like junkie
Waan' back wi waterpumpee
We cool an deadly fi go dance with wi ladies
Dem ya dance too funky
Gunshot ah buss, di youth dem get jumpy
[Verse 4]
Dance now is like a disgrace
If yuh think ah joke take a walk inna di place
Inna corner me spot bare screwed face
If you ever walk near ah man shoelace
Big bad man ah pop gun off ah waist
Or a Heineken bust inna your face;
Nuh leave no trace
[Chorus/Outro]
Waan' back wi waterpumpee
We cool an deadly fi go dance with wi lady
Dem ya dance too funky
Make man ya move inna di dance like junkie
