Johnny Clarke Simmer Down Lyrics

Simmer down.. don't mek you so hot, man
Simmer down.. say you will get dropped, man
Simmer down.. man, you hear what I say?
Simmer down.. see why won't you, why won't you, why won't you simmer down?
Simmer, simmer, simmer..

Long time people dem, used to say
What sweet nanny goat a go run him belly, so:
Simmer down.. just control your temper
Simmer down.. or the battle will be hotter
Simmer down.. you hear what I say, hey?
Simmer down.. see why won't you, why won't you, why won't you simmer down?
Simmer down..

Chicken Mary, hawk de near and when him de near, you must beware, so:
Simmer down.. you hear what I say, hey? Simmer down.. see why won't you, why won't you, why won't you simmer down?
Simmer down.. just control your temper
Simmer down.. you hear what I say, hey?
Simmer down.. simmer down, simmer down
Simmer down.. simmer, simmer down..

Long time people dem, used to say
What sweet nanny goat a go run him belly, so:
Simmer down.. you hear what I say, hey?
Simmer down.. I'm leaving you today, hey
Simmer down.. see why won't you, why won't you, why won't you simmer down?
Simmer down.. just control your temper
Simmer down.. or the battle will be hotter
Simmer down.. you hear what I say, hey?
Simmer down.. simmer, simmer down..
