Suzy Jumbie
[Verse 1]
An ugly woman named Suzy Jumbie
Selling roast corn in Sangre Grande
She win a sweepstakes there recently
And stop selling corn immediately
No man never look at she twice
But now they saying how she so nice
She listening to them attentively
And than tell all of them candidly:
[Chorus]
"When I had no money
Nobody didn't want me
Now I win a little bit of money
All you buying me company
I don't want nobody
I ain't care if all you want me
Any man that want to want me
Must have more money than me, Suzy Jumbie"
[Verse 2]
If you see all thеm big time doctors
Magistrates and big lawyers
You won't bеlieve they done married already
And still they promising matrimony
Saying how she so lovely and exquisite
The image of Princess Margaret
All this mamaguism and flattery
Had no effect on Suzy
[Chorus]
"When I had no money
Nobody didn't want me
Now I win a little bit of money
All you buying me company
Because I ain't want nobody
I ain't care if all you want me
Any man that wants to want me
Must have more money than me, Suzy Jumbie"
[Verse 3]
I see a saga boy shedding tears
Saying he love Suzy for donkey years
And he just can't take it no longer again
His love for her driving him insane
No sleep, no food, morning, noon, or night
Her lovely face always in sight
He got to turn the face, he can't look at she
But he talking about matrimony
She tell him:
[Chorus]
"When I had no money
Saga, you didn't want me
Now I win a little bit of money
You buying me company
I ain't want nobody
I ain't care if all you want me
Any man that wants to want me
Must have more money than me"
[Verse 4]
One day an ugly-no-teeth fellow name Laddy
He went up to Sangre Grande
Bounced up Suzy one Saturday night
And she fell madly in love at first sight
An old Taxi driver from Port of Spain
You know the criminal got brain
He milk she dry, he pull out and gone
Suzy gone back to selling roast corn
[Verse 5]
For when she had she money
She always had company
Play smart for everybody
But she get trap with no-teeth laddie
Moco Jumbie Suzy, boy she really looking sad
Every penny she make nowadays
She buying sweepstakes like if she mad
