[Verse 1]
Well you take away me woman
And you put a ring on she hand
And you feeling down in your heart
You so smart!
But you realize only now
How she butting you like a cow
You thought was an angel cake
But you thief a bake
You know she ain't love you
You damn stupid cunumunu
Dennis, pay for your damn farseness
You give she the money
You put she in a nice place
I give she the honey
Sweet for she tootsie is
In the middle of the night
[Chorus]
But ah...
(Who she go cry for?)
When she want to hug up tight
(Who she go cry for?)
When the woman feeling to scratch and bite
(Who she go cry for?)
[Verse 2]
She living happy with me
You find she looking pretty
You tell your friend so she can't escape
You like she shape!
Jump and buy a big television set
Something I never give she yet
Diamond ring was your next approach
You end up in the church
During the wedding reception
She gone with Roy the best man
I know is Obeah make her stupid so
You give she the ring
In June or in September
I give she the thing
She always will remember
[Chorus]
In the middle of the night, tell me
(Who she go cry for?)
When she want to hug up tight
(Who she go cry for?)
Oh! when she want to scratch and bite
(Who she go cry for?)
[Verse 3]
You wanted to settle down
With a pretty woman in town
And your two eyes catch afire for my Sarah
Now I hear she telling everybody
How you mushed [?] into she
She tired of the Frenchman thing
That you like every night
You used to play sweet man
But now you gota reputation
In heat, she say you more hot than you sweet
You working all day
You tired and you weary
Me not work no way
And I ready like Freddy
[Chorus]
In the middle of the night
(Who she go cry for?)
When she want to hug up tight
(Who she go cry for?)
When the woman feeling to scratch and bite
(Who she go cry for?)
