Back Home For Carnival

It was Carnival Monday

I wasn't Jumping up in de Band

I was playing Spectator

Hugging up "may" partner Worman

When this old girlfriend Spot me

And - Darling "before meh head could ah tun"

She "start" bathing in powder

And drag me in de band -

Singing (CHORUS)

C1

Doh tell me you can't remember

When all ah we used to run

Doh tell me you can't remember

Darling - Dem days was real - "real" fun

Doh tell me you can't remember

Liming - Down by Johnson corner --

Doh tell me you can't remember

"When all ah we "was" one" A.... A

V2-

Well is now ah  begging for mercy 

Causing ah dressing in "may" Dan Dan

Please somebody help me 

Playing ah do know the Gal from Adam

She - say look ah know yuh, Father

Mother, Brother -Yuh whole Family

Doh tell me yuh can't remember playing

Dolley House with me  A A.. CHORUS

V3

Suddenly... Everybody scatter

Still ah can't find any place to run

Now the Pan sounding sweeter

So ah decide to join in the fun

Everybody Happy -

Familiar face Everywhere "ah tun" Now

Me and de flay woman sharing

Ah, bottle ah Old Oak rum ..Singing. CHORUS

C2

Do Tell Me You Car Remember

Ah Could Just Like Yesterday

Do Tell Me You Car Remember

Playing "May Penny Whe - Whe"  A ... A

Doh Tell Yuh car remember...

Dem days I will always treasure 

Doh tell me yuh car remember

When All ah we was one.

C3

Doh tell me yuh car remember

Stoning mango tree just for fun

Doh tell me yuh car remember

Scraping Mamma pot for Bun Bun,

Doh tell me yuh car remember 

Dem days ah will always treasure

Doh tell me yuh car remember 

When "all ah we was one" A A
