    One wen dem work with a little contractor.

    Him have one up north and two down south

    One a sell cigarettes on the roundabout - lord.

    The other night them going out dem pick her new purse.

    You too girlie girlie
    You jus a flash it round the worldie
    . . .
    A big fat one who a go go dancer
    A little slim one who's a radio announcer.

    And before him grow old he want one a North Pole.

    One Russia
    One Syberia
    One a Syria
    One Tanzania.
    One Australia
