BARBADOS GIRL ~ BEAUTIFUL !
I come to the House of my Girlfriend
Man friend tellin\' I\'m fool \"Wastin\' time with Girl !\"
Come on Man ~ Come fish for Golden Snapper
BUT I decide to visit my Golden Girl !
I bring her flowers ~ Her dress is patterned
With love birds ~ she has a ring in each ear
I am ready for her Love and she for mine
NO FISHIN\' ~ For her Love ~ I\'m now wishin\' !
Her body has the scent of Khus Khus grass
The sweet fibres she put between linen sheets
She has washed her mouth with milk for Kissing
She has washed her body with pure water from the well
Now ~ because she does not wish to rush our Love
She offers me plums ~ and glass of date wine !
Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ Caribbean Love ~ BRIAN
