Market Songtext

She seh fi drop a pound a pumpkin in the basket
Pick up some roses and she tek up couple chocolate
She nuh wah fi guh nuh walmart and she nuh wah guh nuh target
Seh she wah di natty dread fi carry her guh a market
Stretch fi couple vegetable tell me seh she want it
Baby girl ah wah fi tek some picture with di artist

The Market looking like a stone love party
Everybody stand up at dem favourite stall
One man a chop di jelly nedda one a sell carpet
Some a dem a hustle likkle art and craft
Same time Elaine a try fi sell mi avocado
Di empress touch it and a seh it feel too soft
Lord mi seh mi glad me and mi empress in the market
'Cause she know the type a supm weh she wah
She touch mi pon mi shoulder softly and a show me Ms. Margerie
Seh she has some pretty callaloo and Swiss chard
But when mi check a stock and see di money weh she charge mi
Jah man to how shock mi nearly run guh a mi yaad
Mama this is triple what you charged me in the past She blame it pon inflation and a tell mi time hard
Lord mi seh no wonder why di people dem starving
Nuh wonder why di farmer man a ball

Mi cry
Peel cane man I beg you peel some more
Peel fi di rich and you appeal fi di poor
Honorable mr Chronixx you di people adore
Grab up di microphone weh many drop pon di floor

Still mi empress a pattern some herbal tea
Some a tea bag, di rest a dem a loose leaf
Chamomile petals mi neva loose sleep
Ginseng kick in, rastaman a bruce lee
Empty your mind and becomes like Qi
Dem seh farmers nuh special, dem special to me
Who a seh dem rough, Dem nuh rough like
Men a seh dem tough, dem nuh tough like we

Carry di family up to di mountain peak
Me and Kyanite gone guh pick lychee
Rade soursop and we rade lime tree
Some yellow heart breadfruit weh roast and sweet
Now dem a seh di ital cuisine nice ee
Must the seasoning and di coconut cream
Dem a seh di best tings in life are free
Gluten-free dairy free. Aye
Carry mi baby madd guh a
Rip it again
