Duncan

Mighty Sparrow

[Verse 1]
Duncan de saga man make a young girl upset he plan
Duncan de saga man make a young girl upset he plan

He thought he was movin' cool
He thought she was just a little fool
He get mamaguy
When she corner Duncan he can't reply

[Chorus]
Yeah she asked him
"I wonder why when me mama there you don't kiss me?
I wonder why when me mama there you're so shy?
I wonder why when me mama there you so sneaky?
Playing quiet and only making sweet eye"

Don't think that you breakin' meh heart
Mama know everything from the start
The ring done buy so is useless you playing smart

[Verse 2]
See mama was in de place
If you see Duncan hide yo face
In between all the questioning
Only trembling would say a thing
Fifteen years and feeling great
Duncan is 'bout sixty-eight
When she asked him why, Duncan kneel down and start to cry

[Chorus]
Yeah she asked him
"I wonder why when me mama there you don't kiss me?
I wonder why when me mama there you're so shy?
I wonder why when me mama there you so sneaky?
Playing quiet and only making sweet eye"

Don't think that you breakin' meh heart
Mama know everything from the start
The ring done buy so is useless you playing smart

[Verse 3]
The old queen start turning beast
Only threatening to call police
Bawling, "Married and make meh will
Otherwise somebody get killed!"
Duncan start to plead with she
Bawling, "Have some some sympathy!"
The child is insane but the girl start to question Duncan again

[Chorus]
Yeah she asked him
"I wonder why when me mama there you don't kiss me?
I wonder why when me mama there you're so shy?
I wonder why when me mama there you so sneaky?
Playing quiet and only making sweet eye"

Don't think that you breakin' meh heart
Mommy know everything from the start
The ring done buy so is useless you playing smart

[Verse 4]
Don't try to bramble me
Once you kiss you have to marry she
You owe her house, land, and property
And you ain't got no family
Some in-law you can't escape, otherwise the charge is rape
Don't be reluctant
When you marry married you could do she all way you want

[Chorus]
Neighbor Duncan
"I wonder why when me mama there you don't kiss me?
I wonder why when me mama there you're so shy?
I wonder why when me mama there you so sneaky?
Playing quiet and only making sweet eye"

Don't think that you breakin' meh heart
Mommy know everything from the start
The ring done buy so is useless you playing smart
