Mighty Sparrow Jook For Jook Lyrics

[Verse 1]
De reason she man playin' jook for jook
Right in me eye, I say I 'shamed to look
De' reason she man playin' jook for jook
He got a long needle in she arm which she hook
I know, jookin' is a painful thing
But de' reason like she vexed when he stop jookin'
He jook she in she belly like he jook she bad
Teresa start to bawl like if she goin' mad

[Chorus]
Ah-hoo, doo-doo, don't jook so hard
I beggin' you
Woye! Pepper! Don't jook so hard
Ay-yi-yi, I beggin' you
Stay in de corner
Not in de centеr
She shout, oh gosh
You gotta take it out!

[Verse 2]
Oh, dey start back again in a diffеrent style
De two of dem close dey eyes and dey jookin' wild
Dey jook and dey jook til de couch break down
She lock de neck and she jookin' him on de ground
I say, I better go and part
Before any bloodshed start
She says, Sparrow boy, does it concern you?
If you come too close, we jook you too

[Chorus]
Ah-hoo, doo-doo, don't jook so hard
Ay-yi-yi, I beggin' you
Woye! Pepper! Don't jook so hard
I beggin' you
Stay in de corner
Not in de center
She shout, oh gosh
You gotta take it out! [Verse 3]
Well, I tired see people play lash-for-lash
Foot-for-foot and mash-for-mash
But dis jook for jook is a brand new one
See dem how dey havin' fun on de ground
My belly start to boil I'm tellin' you
I feel I could go and jook she too
She perspiring buckets of drops
She complaining but she wouldn't stop

[Chorus]
Ah-hoo, doo-doo, don't jook so hard
Ay-yi-yi, I beggin' you
Woye! Pepper! Don't jook so hard
I beggin' you
Stay in de corner
Not in de center
She shout, oh gosh
You go jook it out!

[Verse 4]
Oh well, I never see nothing so since I born
For hours and hours, dey carryin' on
De man felt a jook and say she dead for sure
But he miss and de needle stick in de floor
She push him 'way and she call on me
Bawlin' "jookie-jookie-jook", forty-two I win
I don't know if I jookin' if I touch a vein
Man, she react like if she in pain, bawlin'

[Chorus]
Ah-hoo, doo-doo, don't jook so hard
Ay-yi-yi, I beggin' you
Woye! Pepper! Don't jook so hard
I beggin' you
Stay in de' corner
Not in de' center
She bawl, oh gosh
You go dig it out!
