Baba Motta & His Orchestra - Jamaica Talk Lyrics

Tourists want know is what we talk
What kind of language we ?
We tell the say it's from english slang
But them still say them don't understand
A-wha we say, a-wha we say
The tourist them ask
A-wha we say

I went one morning down the street
And I hear them ask a-where we eat
I go and I say go north then west
And there you will find the very best
A-wha we say, a-wha we say
The tourist them ask
A-wha we say

Them don't understand is what we mean
When we tell them say them look like queen
Them look so nice at them walk-about
You smile with them without a doubt
A-wha we say, a-wha we say
The tourist them ask
A-wha we say

I met one lady a walk one day
She say where I can find a stay
I say go straight and follow your nose
And there you will find a sweet prepose
A-wha we say, a-wha we say
The tourist them ask
A-wha we say

She still a-look like she don't understand
An she say what did you say my good man
I tell her again to follow she nose
But she still look like she in a dose
A-wha we say, a-wha we say
The tourist them ask
A-wha we say

English they say it's french no doubt
The still a-try to figure it out
A-what we saw, a-wha we say
We tell them say wha we say
A-wha we say, a-wha we say
The tourist them ask
A-wha we say
