BELMONT JACKASS
By Lord Melody

Man, you married a tramp and you cable me to come [Melo, come]
And the day of the wedding she loaded with rum [Stale rum]
And the ring you presented was made out of brass
That is how I know your lousy wedding couldn't last. [Sparrow!]

Chorus:
When your wife walking, people say she shaking
She should wear a corset for the goods she carrying
She should wear a harness, she face like a mas
That is why my boys does call she, "Belmont Jackass".

Well, the clothes that she wear on her gracious wedding night [Wedding night]
It was rumpled like hell and full of rat bite [Rat bite]
With a short nipple dress, all them men could see
And she drinking rum and water and watching at me. [Sparrow!]

Chorus:
When your wife walking, people say she shaking
She should wear a corset for the goods she carrying
She should wear a harness, she face like a mas'
That is why the boys does call she, "Belmont Jackass".

I remember the night that she land in Port of Spain [Port of Spain]
So much rum, so much beer and so much champagne [champagne]
As she reach in the night club, she snatch up a man
That is why you black up she eye and send she out of the land. [Sparrow!]

Chorus:
When your wife walking, people say she shaking
She should wear a corset for the goods she carrying
She should wear a harness, she face like a mas'
That is why the boys does call she, "Belmont Jackass"

Well, your wife is your wife, I can't tell you what to do [What to do]
But it occur to me she didn't love you [Poor you!]
Because the thing that she tell me that you try to do
It ent have a next Grenadian with nasty habit like you. [Sparrow!]

Chorus:
When your wife walking, people say she shaking
She should wear a corset for the goods she carrying
She should wear a harness, she face like a mas'
That is why the men does call she, "Belmont Jackass".

A Note From The Gull

Thank you, Lord Melody!

"Patria est communis omnium parens" - Our native land is the common parent of us all. Keep it beautiful, make it even more so.

Blessed is all of creation
Blessed be my beautiful people
Blessed be the day of our awakening
Blessed is my country
Blessed are her patient hills.

Mweh ka allay!
