Bo! |
Bo! |
Bo. |
Mi say everywhere mi go dem call me Daddy |
And mi close friends call me Baby Sammy |
Mi goal in life is to get me Grammy |
Mi like go Palm Beach and Miami |
Say when mi was a youth mi have to stay with granny |
And when mi out of hand she whipped mi fanny |
Now some like it dry, I like it wet |
And some of them like it anyway they can get |
I’m the Odad that you can’t forget |
I’m the Odad that you can’t forget |
With di mic in mi hand, mi crew by mi side |
Let’s take a ride, I’ll be your guide |
Words start flowin like a lyrical tide |
Girls start movin dem big backsides |
Mi lay down mi law and you will abide |
And if you’re drunk, then you will be tried |
Me pon di stand, mi can’t be denied |
Mi a-fi Ebony Chief, me a-fi bonafide |
Now some like it dry it, I like it wet it |
And some of dem like it anyway dem can get it |
I’m the Odad that you can’t forget |
I’m the Odad that you can’t forget |
Say when mi at home always get mi wish |
Mi wife cook a dish of planters and fish |
Mi listen to di sound of di compact disc |
And when mi have a stain wash it out with whisk |
Mi voice a-fi clean, mi mic a-fi crisp |
Mi motherland is what I miss |
Dem youth round mi way mi always diss |
Cause knuckleheads always get me pissed |
Now some like it dry, I like it wet |
And some of dem like it anyway dem can get |
I’m the Odad that you can’t forget |
I’m the Odad that you can’t forget |
Ease this selection |
Under close inspection |
This one in a Stet perfection |
O to y-double d-a-D |
Yes it’s me dem call Ebony |
mi long to see |
And I’m down with S-t-e-t |
Mi brethren, the R.O.D |
Don’t forget the DBC |
Fruitkwan and the Mix Machine |
And Prince Paul, him cut real clean |
Mi Daddy-O and him a rhymin fiend |
And I’m here pon di scene |
Him doesn’t like gamblin and go ramblin |
Him a-fi toured from Miami to Camden |
And in a New York town dem be jammin |
And when him rhyme to the beat him be slammin |
Bo! |
Bo! |
This one dedicated to the international Stet posse |
To the one called Don Barron |
To the one called Just-Ice |
To the one called KRS-One |
Easy now |
Easy now |
