Twice My Age

[Intro: Shabba Ranks]
Uh!
What this girl thinking?
She want a elderly man
I don't wrong her still
Because she's thinking about the dollar bill
Come now!

[Chorus: Krystal]
I'm in love with a man, nearly twice my age
Don't know what it is, but its a hit for my youthful days
As I go my way, I don't care what people say
I'm in love with a man, nearly twice my age!

[Verse 1: Shabba Ranks]
Come now!
Idle jube-jube, idle jube
She nuh waan no Idle jube-jube, idle jube
She want a man weh can pluck out the royalty
The idle jube, you know say 'im nuh have money
She nuh waan no lover's honey, she waan di money
She nuh waan no lover's honey, she waan di money!

[Verse 2: Krystal]
When I tell you girls, in my youthful days
I never loved another man my age
And then the Don, he came along
Made me smile all the while
He stood tall and strong, so strong, so strong...

[Verse 3: Shabba Ranks]
Young man have strength but that is nonsense
She want a man fi let off recompense
True!
She waan pay lightbill and rent, and
You know you haffi have a big dividend and
Down di line you pocket haffi have length
Make sure say that, your dollars haffi full of strength

[Verse 4: Krystal]
Stood up for me when no one cared
Stood up for me where other men wouldn't dare
Made me know a true man's love
Never made me feel he's old
Never gave me love that cold
You had better watch your food
Old men will dip into your plate

[Verse 5: Shabba Ranks]
And she want an old man, mi nah go say that she wrong
'Cause she a deal with a foundation
The lady, young man only a go mash up her plan
And she want some dollars in her hand

[Chorus: Krystal]
I'm in love with a man, nearly twice my age
Don't know what it is, but its a hit for my youthful days
As I go my way, I don't care what people say
I'm in love with a man, nearly twice my age!

[Verse 6: Shabba Ranks]
She nuh waan no Idle jube-jube, idle jube
She nuh waan no Idle jube-jube, idle jube
She nah lover's honey, what she want is money
She nah lover's honey, what she want is money
The woman is dealing with maturity
That's why she nah go take nothing under 30
35 an 40, 45 an 50
55 and 60, the woman waan money

[Verse 7: Krystal]
Girls, this is my advice to you!
A man that age has good experience!
He'll treat you good, he'll treat you well
He may make you rich and proud
So you won't have to bow, won't have to bow!

[Verse 3: Shabba Ranks]
Young man have strength, but that is nonsense
She want a man fi let off recompense
Cho!
She waan pay lightbill and rent, and
Make sure say that your pocket, it have length, and
Your collateral's haffi full up of strength

[Verse 1: Shabba Ranks]
Idle jube-jube, idle jube
She nah lover's honey, what she want is money
She nah lover's honey, what she want is money

[Chorus: Krystal (2x)]
I'm in love with a man, nearly twice my age
Don't know what it is, but its a hit for my youthful days
As I go my way, I don't care what people say
I'm in love with a man, nearly twice my age!
