Now you have some people
Fi dem idea of a good night out is to go to the
Pub, drink 15 pints of lager, and then vomit
Dem a drink too much and dem cyan take it
No bother drink too much if you cyan hold it
Nuh drink too much if you cyan take it
No bother drink too much if you cyan hold it
Some people you don't see dem sober
Every night dem gone to the pub 'round the corner
Never drink less than 12 pint of lager
Pump up dem belly like a tank full of water
Straight to the Indian restaurant after
Make a lot of noise and distress the waiter
Eat chicken curry and a couple of samosa
Then dem throw up pon somebody shoulder
Wake up next morning with a hangover
The slightest sound sound like a bulldozer
Feel like a double decker bus run dem over
Feel like Tyson, give dem a right under
Nuh drink too much if you cyan take it
No bother drink too much if you cyan hold it
Nuh drink too much if you cyan take it
No bother drink too much if you cyan hold it
When I was 16, working in a factory
Dem always used to have a Christmas party
Down at the pub and dem invite me
Dem say if me don't come, me is a big baby
When me reach, dem say, "Wha' you waan drink?"
Me say, "Rum"
Dem say, "Can you hold it?"
Me say, "Bring the rum come, cho"
You no see say that me a Black man
And Jamaica a the country where the rum come from
First one come, he gone down
Second one come, he gone down
Third one come, he gone down
Fourth one come, he gone down
When the fifth one come, dem ask me again
Dem say, "Are you sure that you can manage dem?"
True, me a gwan like big man front of friend
Me say, "How you mean? Give me five more of dem"
Sixth one come, no problem
Seventh one come, no problem
Eighth one come, no problem
Ninth one come, no problem
When the tenth one come, me say, "Lawd, a wha' this?
Why am I doing this foolishness?
Why is the room spinning like this?
Lord, mi God, I think I'm going to be sick"
Drink too much and you cyan take it
No bother drink too much if you cyan hold it
Nuh drink too much if you cyan take it
No bother drink too much if you cyan hold it
One drink and dem gone, some people
One drink and dem gone, gone, gone, gone
One drink and dem gone, some people
One drink and dem gone
Like the girl me used to know by the name of Suzie
One glass of vodka, she get tipsy
Yes, tell everybody her life story
Any man want her, well, she very easy
One night she so drunk totally
She no remember not a thing about it
Nine months later, blue baby
But the bad thing is she no know the daddy
If a Tom, if a Dick, or it could be Harry
Could be Fred, could be John, or it could be Larry
Could be Ja- couldn't be Jill, but it could be Harry
The only thing me know for certain, it was not me
No bother drink too much if you cyan take it
Nuh drink too much if you cyan hold it
No bother drink too much if you cyan take it
No bother drink too much if you cyan hold it
Why drink 'til you're paralytic?
Every minute you a run a toilet
It make you bruk wheel inna public
Regurgitate upon your carpet
Make you tell everybody all your secret
It make you walk like you need a new hip
Try stop when you reach your limit
If you must drink at all, then take time with it
But one thing me a say, don't drink and drive
'Cause you might help somebody stay alive
No bother drink too much if you cyan take it
No bother drink too much if you cyan hold it
