Like to tell you a story about a girl I know

Or should I say a girl I used to know

1971 inna england
Fresh off the plane to my dame inna brixton

No she never ask 'bout flight
Two month now no telegram write

Hey she send taxi fi I
She gone a some house party tonight

So call me artical like
Make a few call get a couple invite
Inna the place me gone
Never leff yard from the day me born

Right up front who me staring pon
You can tell say a she by the way she gwaan

Christine christina crystal
Try all a dem and she still never respond

Understand catch a pree from a distance
Man hand gone inna pants fi a six-pance
Whoa tuff guys beside her
She naa reply when I say hi to her
So dem go try bring violence in the parr
Need I remind these kind that I nuh war

So me turn fi walk away
But a likkle voice in my head start talk to me

Tell me walk right pass her

To the sound take the mic and ask her

Girl why don't you answer to your name

Girl why don't you answer to your name

And girl I know you see me

And you know I see you too
So what is it gonna be

Tell me what you wanna do
What's with this great mystery

After all that we been through
Now you're refusing to look my way eh

My likkle darling

Know she stay so from morning
Where she grew was appalling
Want fi make it right so she take the flight
Heard the city lights calling

From the day she been crawling

All she hear bout is foreign

Say we a keep the link
Now wah me fi think see the plans dem sinking

Deep new year reach
Accent gone pon all part a you speech
Don gorgon dem u waa fi go meet
Like she be the real topanaris a street

Please watch how me calmness a do it
Naa bat a lid as a morning I leave
But how me fi walk right pass you miss
Haffi look inna you eye and ask you this
Girl why don't you answer to your name

Girl why don't you answer to your name

And girl I know you see me

And you know I see you too
So what is it gonna be

Tell me what you wanna do
What's with this great mystery

After all that we been through
Now you're refusing to look my way eh

And I know you know what I'm talking about

Girl see you in the crowd and act like she don't know

But me naa take no stylin' no punkin' or no joke

Huh

No it no sweet no it no sweet
